Green Tourmaline Herma Ring

One-of-a-kind 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 a quadrangle of green tourmaline, framed on each side with four spheres of gold, evoking the sacred number of the messenger god.  Handmade in New York, New York Green Tourmaline, 22K gold 7mm tapers to 3mm
