- Lot Description
Roman, Imperial, ca. 1st to 4th century CE. A striking necklace featuring 12 tubular carved bone beads adorned with diagonal striations, several disc, barrel, and tab-shaped bone beads, 3 stone beads of spherical form, 2 modern brass barrel beads with diamond-shaped patterns, and a modern brass pendant. Flanked by two spherical stone beads, one of deep grey incised vertically and the other a greyish-maroon embellished with target designs, the lustrous bronze-hued pendant depicts the face of a Roman woman or goddess, perhaps Venus (Greek Aphrodite) due to the starfish above her head, rendered in high relief. Moving away from the pendant, the beads are arranged in a near identical pattern on either side with a series of tabbed bone beads, a singular brass barrel bead, many barrel and discoid bone beads, a tubular bone bead flanked on either side by more tab-shaped beads, and then a row of tubular bone beads that meet at another spherical stone with vertical stripes. Size of pendant: 2.125" W x 2.125" H (5.4 cm x 5.4 cm); Size of chain: 21" L (53.3 cm)
Provenance: private Arcadia, California, USA collection, acquired prior to 2000
