Object Description
A fine, restrung Ancient Roman necklace composed of glass beads of different vibrancy and shades of green from lime-green to emerald tones. Each bead is unique in translucency, colour, texture, and shape which creates a mosaic-like impression. Four larger beads, including a large disc bead, have been strung in a drop formation to form a pendant at its centre. Such necklaces testify to the popularity of glass ornaments across the Roman Empire. The necklace is finished with a gold-plated clasp (please be aware the clasp has not been professionally tied).
Date: Circa 1st – 4th Century AD
