Iolite Roman Glass Necklace (Israel)
Add a truly unique piece to your jewelry collection with this Roman glass
necklace.
Accented by a large faceted iolite, the ancient Roman glass plays off
the violet iolite and the matte finish on the sterling silver pendant
to create a striking look. The chain is constructed from oxidized sterling
silver to complement the darkened zig-zag on the pendant's crown. The
iridescent shards of ancient Roman Glass are at least 1700 years old.
A story card explaining how the captivating colors were formed is included.
The glass has been unearthed by archaeologists in Israel as they sift
through remains of fallen pillars and once spectacular cities of the Roman
Empire.
Handcrafted in Israel in a small studio near Haifa, each creation varies
slightly, making it a truly original work of wearable art.
The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences
in design and sizing. Subtle variations will occur from piece to piece,
adding to its unique qualities. Measurements may vary slightly.
Please do not get your jewelry wet. Treat it as if it were 2,000 years
old. Avoid showering or swimming with your jewelry on, and don't use hairspray
near it. It's recommended that you not even touch it frequently--oils
from your hands may alter the glass color and remove its luster. Clean
the silver with a cloth, but try not to rub the ancient glass.
