Hermes (Greek Mythology), Mercury (Roman Mythology)
In Greek mythology, Hermes was the messenger of the gods, the protector of travelers, and the guide of the dead to the underworld.
Messenger of the gods: Hermes was the messenger of the gods and a mediator between the living and the dead. He was often depicted with a winged hat and sandals.
Protector of travelers: Hermes was the patron god of travelers, and his statues were often found at crossroads.
Guide of the dead: Hermes was the conductor of the dead to Hades, and was known as the psychopomp, or "soul guide".
Other associations: Hermes was also associated with luck, shepherds, athletes, and merchants. He was the patron of invention, art, literature, and trade.
Cameo and Intaglio jewels are all the rage today and this is one of the most wonderful we have seen. The jewel is in the style of those made today by Elizabeth Locke, however, this is the original 19th Century jewel that was Locke's inspiration. The blue color is absolutely fabulous. The cameo dates to the 19th Century.
The pendant is 27mm tall (1 1/16 inches) including the bales. Without the bale it is 20mm tall and is 17mm (3/4 inch) wide.
The pendant is 10-12 Karat Gold.
The listing is only for the cameo pendant. The chain is only shown for display.

THIS IS A SUPERB VICTORIAN PICTURE LOCKET NECKLACE WITH A HAND CARVED HARDSTONE CAMEO OF A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. THE LOCKET HANGS FROM A WONDERFUL BOOK BELCHER CHAIN. THE NECKLACE DATES TO C1860-1890.
