Add a unique touch to any ensemble with this Roman Glass Filigree Bracelet.
This stunning bracelet is handmade by a Yemenite silversmith in Israel; he carries on the tradition he learned from his grandfather. The artisan braids together extremely thin strands of silver to create the filigree work, then oxidizes the silver to make it look ancient. Finally, he adds hand-cut shards of ancient Roman glass to give the piece its dazzling color.
The Roman glass is nearly 2000 years old. A story card explains how the color has accumulated over many centuries of being buried. The glass is regularly unearthed by archaeologists sifting through the remains of Roman Empire cities. Those shards without museum value may be bought by artisans.
The handcrafted nature of this product will produce slight variations in color, form, and sizing. All measurements are approximate.
Please do not get your jewelry wet. Treat it as if it were 2,000 years old. Avoid rubbing the glass, as oils from your hands may alter its color and remove its luster. Clean the silver with a cloth, but try not to rub the ancient glass.
