THE STORY

The Gold of Rome

Gold jewellery occupied a special place in the world of ancient Rome.

Among those wealthy enough to possess it, jewellery could express beauty, prosperity and social standing, while giving Roman goldsmiths an opportunity to demonstrate extraordinary skill on an intimate scale.

Surviving Roman jewellery reveals a rich vocabulary of techniques: delicate filigree wire, tiny granulated beads, rope-like borders and elegant scrolling forms. These details transformed comparatively small ornaments into intricate pieces of craftsmanship.

The Octavia Earrings take inspiration from the elongated drop-shaped pendants of the Roman Imperial period.

Their tapered silhouette is surrounded by fine textured borders, while curling lines and raised golden details recreate the decorative character of ancient metalwork.

Reimagined as a pair of earrings, the design carries the refinement of Roman gold jewellery into the present.
