Costume Jewelry and Antique Jewellery Makes Great Gift Concepts
Costume Jewelry Historic Roman Earrings, Bracelets

Historic Roman bracelets did not follow a particular design spectrum. They could be glass or coloured, and often they were set with gemstones or even coins. One costume jewelry case that was found in the grave of a woman from Lyons contained gold bracelets embellished with cameo medallions.

The earrings, bracelets and necklaces produced in the Roman era ended up being purely for attractive purposes, and were almost completely worn by Roman ladies as an integral part of their dress. This particular jewellery had no practical purpose at all, as seems obvious from the fact that so much has been found in the ground, often at grave sites.

Clearly the estate jewellery was buried with its operator, and that is why it is possible to recover it and learn much about it today.

You also can acquire such genuine pieces at Antiquities Giftshop
