 Description

Agate Intaglio ring. A shield shaped banded agate intaglio set in an open back rubover setting featuring a finely carved open scroll book and engraved in latin 'Suum Cuique' which translates as 'to each his own', leading to smoothly conforming broad shoulders which taper through to a solid D-shape shank. Tested yellow gold, circa 1860.

 Comments

The phrase 'suum cuique' which can also translate as 'may all get their due' has a key place in the history of philosophy. It was first provisionally defined in Plato's Republic: "justice is when everyone minds his own business, and refrains from meddling in others' affairs". Today, the phrase is often used as a motto, particularly in the legal or justice systems.
