Tiger's eye cameo, octagonal shape "Bearded Man with Helmet" – 14 × 12 mm

Carved gemstone cameo with figural motif

This octagonal cameo made of natural tiger's eye shows the profile of a bearded man with a helmet. The depiction is clearly contoured, with well-defined facial features, beard sections, and the characteristic helmet outline. The composition is compact and focused on the profile motif.

The tiger's eye presents a warm gold to brown basic tone with a typical silky shimmer. The chatoyant effect is subtly perceptible and follows the natural fiber structure of the material, which supports the three-dimensional effect of the engraving. The surface is smooth and evenly finished.

The shape is octagonal, flat convex, and low-domed. The back appears flat. Overall, the intaglio conveys a factual, clear overall impression with clean craftsmanship in a small format.
