In remarkable condition, this stunning ancient pendant is formed in a well-detailed floral shape and set with a cabochon stone (probably glass) that's brilliant ruby red. It's most unusual to find an item of such antiquity still containing a stone and the overlapped edge of the mounting indicates original condition. I can't see any way that it could have been replaced.
The jewel is between 1700 and 2000 years old, made of lead which has developed rich patina and luster through the centuries. It measures 30 mm (nearly 1 1/4")in diameter and comes strung on a lanyard, as it was probably worn originally. Please e-mail to confirm availability, order or request more photos. Thanks for looking. |
