The Roman Empire, c. 100-200AD.
This exquisite Ancient Roman glass necklace captivates with a mesmerizing blend of translucent, multicolored beads in shades of blue, yellow, and moss green. Each bead is uniquely shaped, featuring subtle variations in color, translucency, and texture, creating an alluring mosaic effect that echoes the artistry of ancient Roman craftsmanship.
Roman glass beads, celebrated for their iridescent beauty, were crafted using techniques that have withstood the test of time. The inclusion of glass paste beads, which were created by combining powdered glass and a binder, allowed artisans to mimic the allure of precious stones like lapis lazuli and turquoise. In Roman culture, jewelry was more than mere adornment; it served as a public symbol of status and wealth. As the Roman Empire expanded, so did the complexity and sophistication of its jewelry, evolving from Etruscan-inspired designs to more intricate and ornate creations.
This necklace is not only a stunning piece of ancient artistry but also a timeless statement of elegance, perfect for collectors and admirers of history alike.
Excellent condition, necklace has been restrung. Signs of wear and age. Modern metal clasp. Wearable. Length c. 63,0cm.
