FINE ROMAN PROSTITUTE’S RING, C.100 BC-100 AD

B5250

Regular price $255.00 Sale

Gilt bronze, size 3 1/2 for the small finger as was the custom. 2.3mm band with finely roped raised medial. Mammiform bezel of unmistakable anatomical form, superficially imitating a gemstone and blatantly advertising the intentions of the wearer. Fairly small size for these as Roman prostitutes were often slaves and very young. Prostitution was practiced openly in ancient Rome. Retaining its crisp detail and professionally refurbished with the 24karat gold surface restored. Gift boxed with certificate of authenticity.
