Roman Glass Disc TalisRoman Necklace #5

As part of a limited release, we've created several necklaces in this style, featuring some lovely examples of Roman Glass discs suspended from their centers with our tiny oxidized brass bails. These are very similar to our "Taliswoman" style necklaces, but since we've rotated the bails sideways to work with these Roman Glass discs, we're calling this sister-line "TALISROMAN".

Roman glass is the result of a stunning piece of historic craftsmanship dating back 2,700 years to the time of the Roman Empire. The people of the Roman Empire used more glass than any other ancient civilization. The same sands used to make the glass helped preserve it through the centuries, shaping and molding it into the beautiful pieces excavated today. Two thousand years of burial in minerals and soil combined with wind and weather has resulted in pigmented deposits on the surface of the glass. Through oxidation, the pigment has developed into beautiful patinas of blues and greens, although other rarer colors can still bebeautiful patinas of blues and greens, although other rarer colors can still be found.
