Origin: Mediterranean
Circa: 400 BC to 300 BC
Collection: Jewelry
Style: Greek Silver Coin Rings
Medium: Silver and Gold
Additional Information: This coin was found near Smyrna, Asia Minor.
This genuine ancient coin has been mounted in a modern 18 karat gold ring.
The beautiful face that adorns this silver coin is that of the nymph Larissa, for whom the Thessalian city was named. Her lovely gaze seems touched with shyness, as befits a nature goddess who hides from the sight of mankind. Though the beliefs of the classical world have been abandoned, the serene charms of this ancient Goddess reach across the centuries. To wear this ring is to transcend time, to touch something whose beauty is eternal. - (FJ.3029)
