Oldtidens Grækenland, hellenistisk Guld Ørering | XRF & Museum - 28 mm

Embrace the elegance of ancient Hellenic art with this stunning Ancient Greek Gold Earring, shaped as a female head, from the 4th Century BCE. Weighing 3.39 grams and 28mm in diameter, its pristine condition and rarity are certified, accompanied by an XRF Test Report, making it a collector's gem. This Ancient Greek Gold Earring is a rare artifact, beautifully capturing the essence of the 4th Century BCE Hellenic art. The earring, shaped as a female head, stands as a testament to the ancient Greeks' mastery of goldsmithing. The detail in the facial features, the hair, and the adornments reflects a society that revered beauty and craftsmanship. The weight of 3.39 grams and the diameter of 28mm indicate a piece that was made to be both seen and admired. The pristine condition of this earring suggests that it was treasured and well-maintained throughout its history. It could have belonged to a woman of high status, perhaps worn during significant occasions or as part of ceremonial attire. The craftsmanship displayed in this earring is extraordinary. The high relief of the face, the intricate hairstyle, and the detailed jewelry that adorns the figure are characteristic of Greek art from this period. These features not only reflect the aesthetics of the time but also the symbolic importance of the individual represented, possibly a goddess or a patroness. This piece's journey from the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, Florida, USA, to being accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from J. Bagot Ancient Art, and having an EU export license, underscores its authenticity and cultural value. Collectors and aficionados of ancient art will recognize the rarity and significance of such an item, making it a centerpiece of any collection. For those who seek to own a piece of ancient history, this earring is not just a magnificent piece of jewelry; it is a relic of the ancient world's splendor, representing the intersection of art, history, and mythology. XRF Analysis Report: This Ancient Greek Solid Gold Earring, featuring a female head and dating back to the 4th Century BC, is a remarkable artifact. The XRF results show a composition of 94.7% gold (Au), 3.3% silver (Ag), 1.3% copper (Cu), and a notable 0.8% germanium (Ge). The high gold content suggests exceptional purity, indicative of significant craftsmanship and luxury from the era. The presence of silver and copper, albeit in smaller amounts, was typical for enhancing color and durability. The inclusion of germanium is unusual in ancient artifacts and adds a unique aspect to this piece, making it rarer. With gold purity nearing 23 karats, this earring represents a high-value, historically significant piece. #pioneeringwomen
