Offered is three framed oval shaped Grand Tour Roman Intaglio seals. Top image (3/4" by 1/2" oval) is a boy in a chariot with serpents as horses in front of a sitting woman. Middle image (1" by 3/4") is a profile of a bearded man. Bottom image (slightly larger than top image)is a man standing in front of a lute player. We assume they are gods but we could not identify. They are of a red material possibly red jasper but that is a guess. They have black edges and each image has gold around it. We don't know if it is the metal gold or gold paint. They have not been removed from frame. Frame is modern with what appears as velvet borders. It is approximately 8" by 5" and is in fair condition. Back has number So93813 in pencil on it. They came out of a New York City estate. Shipping is $ 15.00 anywhere in the US. Exact cost of non US destinations is quoted at close or upon prior request. Thanks and good luck bidding.
