Jewel made entirely by hand by the Italian craftsman Gianmarco Fontana. This 925 Silver ring depicting Anubis is part of the “Ancients” collection.

Anubis God revered by the ancient Egyptians. In the iconography he is represented in the form of a man with a jackal's head or in the form of a seated jackal (animal present within the hieroglyph with which A. was indicated). God of the dead, he was considered the tutelary deity who presided over embalming operations. According to the mythological variants, the paternity of A. is attributed to the god Ra, or to Osiris, in whose myth A. presents himself as the one who preserves his body from corruption. His cult lost importance with the spread of the religion of Osiris, a divinity who assumed many of the prerogatives of Anubis. In the Ptolemaic period it was assimilated by the Greeks to Hermes psychopomp.
