Matching pair of Roman gold hoop earrings, featuring a loop from which hangs a gold pendant with a blue glass bead. The hoop is decorated with green glass, set in a square gold cell. The ends of the hoop are twisted to hold the earrings closed. 

-> Gold earrings of this type were widely worn in the Roman period. The use of coloured stones or glass in combination with gold reflects both aesthetic preference and access to long-distance trade networks. Lapis lazuli was a highly prized material sourced from regions such as Afghanistan, while green stones (emerald or glass imitations) were popular in Roman jewellery. Such earrings would have been worn as markers of status and personal adornment, combining craftsmanship with vibrant colour contrast.

Length: ± 26 - 27,5 mm

Condition: good solid condition, intact. Signs of wear consistent with age and use. See images.
The glass and gold are from the Roman period, no modern materials used.

-> The earrings are in wonderful condition and perfect to put on display. For modern wear please consult with a professional jeweller for adding a loop or stud.

Certificate of Authenticity: available upon request (pdf-format).

Historical background:
Glass has existed in natural forms since prehistoric times; however, humans first began producing glass around 4,000 years ago in Mesopotamia, when craftsmen discovered how to combine sand, soda and lime.

For centuries, glass remained a luxury material reserved for the upper classes. Across the Mediterranean world, glassmakers developed techniques such as casting, core-forming and mosaic glass, while experimenting with colours using metallic oxides including cobalt and copper.

The Romans adopted glassmaking following the conquest of Egypt in the 1st century BC. During the 1st century AD, the invention of glassblowing revolutionised production, allowing for larger-scale manufacturing. By adding manganese dioxide, Roman glassmakers were able to produce colourless or ‘aqua’ glass.

Roman glass became highly popular and was widely used for beads, vessels, mosaic tiles and window panes. It was traded throughout the Roman Empire and beyond, reaching regions such as Central Africa, Scandinavia and, via the Silk Road, as far as China.


Material:
This object has been carefully examined for its material and surface characteristics.

Laboratory analysis (e.g. XRF) is not routinely undertaken in private collecting, and destructive testing is avoided as it causes permanent damage to archaeological material.

Before modern hallmarking, gold and silver alloys varied depending on local resources, recycling practices and economic conditions.
