| Description |
This ancient coin is set in a superb 21 karat gold
pendant created in the Roman revival style.
Along with his brothers, Constantius II and
Constans, Constantine II succeeded to the throne
of his father, Constantine the great. These three
were the first rulers of Rome raised in the newly
triumphant Christian faith. In the twilight of the
classical world, the influx of barbarian tribes had
created a new style in jewelry, combining the
delicacy of Roman gold work with a bold and
dramatic presentation. This exquisite pendant is
very much in the taste of the imperial court of
Constantinople. Whoever wears it today is certain
to feel like royalty.
