Chairman's Notes

The Ancient Roman goddess Fortuna, the equivalent of the Greek goddess Tyche, was the personification of luck and prosperity. She is shown her with her key attribute, crossed cornucopiae (horns of plenty), which were a symbol of abundance and nourishment, often depicted as a single or crossed pair, representing fertility, wealth, and sustenance.

Likely worn by an individual seeking Fortuna’s favor, this ring reflects Roman ideals of prosperity, fate, and divine protection, serving as both a personal talisman and a marker of wealth and social standing.
