An oval emerald carved in intaglio with a stylised floral design composed of sweeping, curved petals radiating from a central point. The engraving is softly modelled, with flowing lines that create a sense of movement across the surface. The stone exhibits a vivid green tone with visible natural inclusions and internal fissures, adding texture and depth. The reverse is smooth and polished, contrasting with the domed, carved face.
