| Description |
This ancient coin is set in an 18 karat gold
pendant and strung in a necklace with genuine
mixed tourmaline beads and a 14 karat gold
clasp.
The Roman nobility surrounded themselves with
rare and precious treasures brought from the far
corners of the empire. Silks from China, gems
from India, perfumes from Arabia, all traveled by
caravan for years to adorn the beauties of the
court. This exquisite necklace blends the coin
portrait of a great emperor with the soft hues of
tourmaline, valued since antiquity as a healing
stone. In ancient Rome as today this jewel would
have elicited gasps of admiration. It proves that
classic beauty never goes out of fashion.
