🞦🏛️ Aqua Roman Glass. Open Pear. Certificate of Authenticity. The Necklace That Wears 2,000 Years of History in Aqua.

The fragment of ancient Roman glass set in this sterling silver necklace is not an imitation, not a reproduction, not a modern glass made to look old — it is genuine ancient Roman glass, excavated from archaeological sites in the Middle East, a fragment of glass that was made by Roman glassblowers between approximately 100 BCE and 400 CE, that has spent the intervening two millennia buried in the earth, its surface transformed by that burial into the iridescent, weathered patina that is the unmistakable signature of genuine ancient glass. This particular fragment is aqua — a colour that the Roman glassblowers achieved through the presence of copper or iron oxides in the glass mixture, a blue-green that is as clear and as luminous as the Mediterranean sea that the Roman Empire bordered, a colour that has survived two thousand years of burial to emerge as vivid and as beautiful as the day it was made. The 9.5mm x 13.3mm aqua Roman glass fragment is set in a pear-shaped position within an open pear pendant — the open metalwork of the 13.5mm x 30.8mm pendant framing the ancient glass with a contemporary sterling silver setting that honours the glass's own age without obscuring it, the dot accents of the silver surround adding a delicate, considered detail. A Certificate of Authenticity is included with every necklace. Lobster clasp. 18 inch chain. Pure .925 sterling silver throughout.

The open pear setting allows the ancient glass to be seen from every angle — the aqua colour and iridescent patina of the Roman glass visible through the open silver surround in a composition that is as transparent and as considered as a setting can be. The 13.5mm x 30.8mm pendant gives the aqua Roman glass a vertical, elongated presence at the neckline. No two pieces of Roman glass are identical — each fragment has its own colour, its own patina, its own two thousand years of transformation.

Wear it as the most historically significant piece in your collection — the aqua Roman glass necklace that puts two thousand years of history at your neckline in a fragment of ancient glass as vivid as the Mediterranean sea. Or gift it to someone who collects meaning as well as beauty: a lover of history, an archaeologist at heart, anyone who understands that the most extraordinary jewellery was already ancient before it became a necklace.
