Roman Empire, c. 100–200 AD
A fascinating and unfinished ancient Roman finger ring, coarsely modeled in bronze, offering a glimpse into the jewelry-making process of antiquity. Despite its unrefined state, the ring retains a timeless simplicity, reflecting the widespread use of such adornments in Roman society.
Rings were the most commonly worn type of jewelry during the Roman period, adorned by men, women, and children. While the elite favored gold and silver rings, the Plebeians and lower classes wore more affordable bronze, iron, and copper rings to signify their social status. Some rings featured intaglios, gemstones, or intricate engravings, while others, like this example, remained unembellished.
This piece is an exceptional artifact that captures the craftsmanship, daily life, and social structure of the Roman Empire—a unique addition to any collection of ancient jewelry or Roman antiquities.
Good condition. Intact. A fine green patina envelops in layers of mottled grayish hues. Corrosion. Size approx. 2,0cm x 1,8cm x 0,4cm.
Provenance: Dutch private collection.
