| Description |
This ancient coin is set in a 21 karat gold
pendant created in the Roman revival style.
In the Roman world, it was fashionable to wear
imperial coins set in jewelry as symbols of
political affiliation. As a son and successor to
Constantine the great, Constantius II was one of
the first roman emperors raised as a Christian.
Clever and ambitious, he eventually became sole
ruler of the Roman Empire. This gorgeous
pendant, crafted in the roman manner, could
easily have adorned a royal courtier in
Constantinople. Wherever it is worn today, it is
certain to leave an enduring impression of
opulence and grandeur. Evocative of the past, it
remains completely fashionable in the present.
