Описание: You can find them on eBay. This is an intaglio, a special kind of collectible from the early 19th century. The children (I should say young men and women) of the rich got taken to Italy and France and Germany and Switzerland on what was called the grand tour. A chance to see all of the great archaeological sites and art and sculpture etc. Along the way, they got to purchase all kinds of things including these small but beautifully made objects. I have books of them that were given me by my dad who was a collector of strange antique books and artifacts. When boys got taken on the grand tour, if they were old enough, one of the things they got to experience was set up intimacies with the opposite sex. Girls taken on the grand tour did not get offered that same opportunity. Today, these objects are collectible and really not very expensive. You can see dozens of them for sale on eBay and purchase them for your own collection. I find them beautiful and cannot believe how precisely they are made. Used as jewelry, brooches, necklaces, rings, and on occasion, earrings.
