-> Ancient Romans appreciated complex jewellery designs and used a wide range of materials. Fibulae were worn by both men and women. Fibulae are found in a large variety of styles, from strictly functional to very elaborate designs with colourful enamels or incorporating zoomorphic figures.

古罗马人欣赏复杂的珠宝设计，使用多种材料。别针由男性和女性共同佩戴。别针风格丰富多样，从纯实用到极其华丽的设计，常带有彩色珐琅或融入动物造型。

The lower classed Romans used cheaper imitations of glass or various metal alloys to reduce the cost of manufacture while displaying their social status.

下层罗马人使用价格更低的玻璃仿制品或各种金属合金，以降低制造成本，同时展现其社会地位。

Roman men typically wore one or more finger rings and fibulae. Jewellery was of particular importance to women in Roman society. They had the right to buy, sell or barter their jewellery independently as it was considered their own personal property. Jewellery for children not only showed the wealth and social status of the parents, it often included amulets to protect the children from illness and ward off evil forces.
