金訶利帝母項墜

印度

訶利帝母即鬼子母,為五百鬼子之母,原為竊食他人幼兒之母夜叉,後皈依佛陀,成為安產及孩童的保護神。項墜為巴基斯坦貴霜王朝(約1~3世紀)作品,亦為該時期僅存的傳世珠寶飾品之一。
 圓形,金質,錘鍱而成。正面中央為訶利帝母半身像,頭佩當時神祇常戴的髮飾,面貌圓潤,笑容可掬。頸飾項圈,身著希臘式長袍,腰繫帶,衣襞呈波曲狀。左右兩手均持長莖蓮,左手蓮花上托吉祥果,內有象徵豐饒、財富之花、果、穀、穗等物。訶利帝母像外緣以紅瑪瑙為地,上綴花形紋;最外圍有一凹槽,原飾珍珠,現已佚。最頂端配一蝴蝶花結,亦曾飾寶石。
 項墜背面陰刻十二瓣盛蓮。外緣依四方,各設一環扣,應為繫環。訶利帝母與其夫半支迦,為印度當時犍陀羅地區常見的佛教藝術題材。
