$180.00 Sale

Late Roman/Byzantine period, 5th-8th century AD. Circular, just over 1 ¼” (1.27”) diameter, with a small base projection, perhaps representing a tear or an eye. High domed center. A variation of a common form, usually with a floral center representing the wheel. That feature is omitted here to conform to mandatory Christianity, but the pagan symbolism remains. Professionally refurbished with the silver overlay restored, on an 18” Sterling silver neck chain for contemporary wear. Gift boxed with a certificate of authenticity.
