AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Roman Bronze Ring with Plain Oval Bezel – Roman Empire – 2nd to 4th Century AD

A Roman bronze ring with a broad hoop that gradually expands toward a smooth oval bezel. The bezel is undecorated and appears intentionally plain rather than engraved for sealing, while the robust and restrained construction is characteristic of personal rings worn throughout the Roman Imperial period. The surface preserves an aged dark patina with areas of lighter mineral deposition and wear, consistent with prolonged burial and use over time.

Material: Bronze
Dimensions: 2.0 x 2.0 cm
Weight: 2.89 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.
This item has been legally acquired under European Law.
