Dalmata Ring Leda and the swan

A jewel of great character, with an intaglio dedicated to Leda and the Swan — the most audacious scene of classical mythology on a ground that gives it a new freedom. The swan and Leda, the divine and the human, over black and white spots the classical scene opens to an unexpected vivacity. The form of the ring welcomes this composition full of volume — and each colour creates a different metamorphosis on the depths of the intaglio.From this union came Helen of Troy and the Dioscuri. The swan as transformation of the divine: Jupiter (Zeus in Greek) choosing metamorphosis, grace as the form of love. Love as something that takes every shape — a play of echoes that keeps fascinating, across Mediterranean culture and beyond. On Dalmatian that freedom of substance finds a ground that understands it — the black and white of the Dalmatian carries its own unpredictable logic, and ancient and new find a harmony that gives the jewel a look beyond convention and of great visual impact.The Dalmati
