Description

The herma was an ancient rectangular protective sculpture featuring a male head, masculine bits, and little else. Frequently depicting Hermes, a deity celebrated for his endowments both godly and more human, these stones could be found throughout ancient Greece, especially at boundaries and crossings. Our more portable Herma is made with asalt and peppered diamond rosecut, framed on each side with four spheres of gold, evoking the sacred number of the messenger god.
