拍品描述

A ROMAN GOLD AGATE "DZI" BEAD RING, CIRCA 1ST CENTURY A.D. A substantial Roman ring featuring a pierced agate "Dzi" bead, set horizontally within a high-karat gold frame. The bead is banded with natural tones of cream, brown, and grey, and displays characteristic circular eye motifs. The thick gold hoop is rounded and smoothly finished, merging into simple collar mounts that cradle the bead securely. This unusual fusion of Roman craftsmanship and Central Asian gemstone reflects the far-reaching trade and eclectic tastes of the early Imperial period. Measurements: Diameter: 2cm
