Description Amazing 925 silver roman glass earrings set with bluish roman glass fragments, the diameter is 0.8 inch Included with the jewelry will be a certificate of authenticity stating the following: “This certifies that this piece of hand made jewelry is set with authentic 2,000-year-old roman glass manufactured by the ancient Romans in 2 b.c. The glass was found in archeological diggings throughout the Holy Land. It is authentic and is certified as a genuine antique.” Roman glass was an industrially manufactured substance used by the Romans all over their empire. A large amount of these glass-made vessels were buried and remained intact until their unearthing in later times. While in the ground, some of the glass became oxidized, resulting in a colorful pigment layer -called patina- covering the vessels. This patina gives the vessels a thin tarnish creating a fascinating spectrum of blue, green, purple, red, gold and silver. Today, our jewelry is inlaid with this same glass, delicately handled, cut and restored, passed on to us by the ancient Romans The item is packed in a gift box
