Imagine owning a piece of history that has rested at the bottom of the ocean for centuries. This is the story of our Roman glass beads and pendants—ancient artifacts from the Roman Empire, lost to the sea and now transformed into stunning jewelry.
The Origins and Journey of Roman Glass
Roman glass, crafted between the 1st century BCE and the 4th century CE, was a symbol of Roman craftsmanship. These glass items were traded across the empire, often by sea. Some of these ships, laden with Roman glass, met their end in the ocean, sinking with their precious cargo.
For centuries, these glass pieces lay preserved on the ocean floor. Recently, they’ve been rediscovered, revealing their timeless beauty. The natural iridescence of the glass, caused by centuries underwater, adds to their unique charm.
From Ocean Depths to Timeless Jewelry
Today, these ancient glass fragments are carefully cleaned and shaped into beads and pendants. Each piece carries the marks of its ancient origins, making them not just jewelry components but pieces of history.
When you wear or create jewelry with Roman glass, you’re carrying a tangible connection to the past. These beads and pendants are more than materials—they are relics of a bygone era, reimagined for today.
