Antique Gold-Gilt Phoenician Ring | Mosaic Glass Center-Stone (c. 300 B.C.)

WEAR A PIECE OF HISTORY!

This bold ancient Phoenician ring bears a red-based mosaic glass center-stone and finely crafted gold-gilt metal band. A circular crack runs through the center-stone's face but does not affect the integrity of this otherwise beautiful piece. This artifact can be a beautiful display piece, looped onto a chain as a pendant, or worn as the decorative ring.

Phoenician glass was renowned in ancient times for its unique luster and beauty. The coastal dunes of southern Venice provided high-quality sand for the production of glass, as the technique of glass blowing likely originated in the first century B.C. in this region.

This artifact has been attested as authentic ancient Phoenician and dated to circa 300 B.C. by Mr. Matthew Wicks of Ancient Hands, LTD, and is accompanied by a signed PDF copy of its "Provenance & Ownership" documentation.
