Throughout history, women of fashion have enhanced their beauty with gold jewelry. The secret to a great jewel is that it compliments the charms of the wearer but does not overpower them. Created in an exact echo of the classical style, this dramatic pendant fits perfectly into that category of ornament. Fausta was one of the most distinguished of Roman women, the daughter of one emperor, wife of another, mother of three more. Her regal portrait suggests a woman used to the privileges of power. This gorgeous jewel is fit to adorn an empress. The person who wears it today is certain to feel like one. - (FJ.4533)
