18k Gold Greek God Profile Pendant

This is a round, open-work gold pendant, measuring approximately 1 cm in diameter, as indicated by the user. The primary feature is a profile bust of a figure, strongly resembling a classical Greek or Roman deity or historical figure, facing right. The figure is depicted with elaborate, possibly flowing hair or a helmet with ornamentation, and a prominent nose. The detail suggests a male figure, potentially a god like Ares or a historical general. The gold appears to be of a high carat, likely 18k as stated. The design is cut out from a flat sheet of gold, creating an intricate silhouette within a circular frame. The craftsmanship appears to be good, with clean cuts and a well-defined profile. There is a small, simple jump ring at the top for attachment to a chain. The overall condition appears to be good with a clear, reflective surface, indicating minimal wear or superficial scratches; no significant damage or repairs are immediately visible from the image. The style is classical revival or inspired, suggesting it could range from late 19th century to contemporary, though without specific hallmarks, an exact age is difficult to ascertain. The patina, if any, is minimal, supporting a potentially more recent manufacturing period or well-maintained condition. The piece demonstrates fine detail in the facial features and headwear, indicative of quality craftsmanship.
