Collection: Roman
Medium: ronze-Peridot-Bronze
The hand of nature and that of man have worked together to create a sensational jewel. At its heart is an imperial Sestertius, minted at the peak of the Roman Empire. The passage of centuries has patinated this coin to a rich green hue, which perfectly expresses the melancholic grandeur of a vanished world. The aged bronze is complimented by the rich green of peridot. This gemstone was beloved of the Romans, and it is easy to see why: its beauty is classic. The woman who wears this necklace is certain to be a classic in her own right. - (FJ.4101)
