AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Roman Bronze Double-Bezel Ring – 3rd to 4th Century AD

A Roman bronze finger ring featuring a robust circular hoop that expands toward a distinctive double bezel composed of two adjoining rounded sections. This unusual twin-bezel construction is documented among Roman rings of the later Imperial period and gives the piece a particularly characteristic appearance. The upper surfaces are heavily worn and no clearly identifiable engraved motif survives, so the piece is best described as a decorative finger ring rather than a signet ring. The bronze preserves a dark green-brown archaeological patina with substantial mineral deposits and age-related surface wear.

Material: Bronze
Dimensions: 2.0 x 2.1 cm
Weight: 2.64 gr

Provenance: Acquired in Germany at an Auction House.

We guarantee the authenticity of the pieces, backed by the combined experience of our experts spanning more than 40 years. A Certificate of Authenticity (CoA) will be sent digitally by email.
