Ancient Roman Gold Ornate Ring with Gemstones
Circa 1st-3rd Century AD
An elegant Ancient Roman gold ring, featuring three segmented cylindrical bands, tapering and joining to a point. Within their centre each band features a round cabochon, two of turquoise glass and one garnet.
As in many ancient societies, jewellery was an important social marker used to demonstrate wealth. Following the spread of the Roman Empire, Roman jewellery became more and more elaborate in the designs and in the materials used, such as precious and semi-precious gemstones. Roman jewellery reflected the culture the Romans entered in contact with, and testified the prosperity and the power of the Roman Empire. Rings were the most popular pieces of Roman jewellery, usually embellished with fine carving.
Closest UK ring size Q. Internal diameter 1.9 cm. Weight: 16.3 gr.
Provenance: UK, Harley Street professional collection, acquired 1970s-80s.
