K14GF ◇ Afghan Origin ◇ Roman Glass Earrings

Roman glass refers to glass products that were buried in the earth and underwent a chemical reaction with soil components such as silica, aluminum oxide, iron, copper, and magnesium (glass iridescence) over 1200-1700 years ago (approximately the first 5 centuries AD) during the Roman Empire, primarily in what is now Afghanistan and Iran. This phenomenon occurs when various environmental conditions align, creating beautiful Roman glass with layers of iridescent films that shimmer with a rainbow hue. These Roman glass pieces are a delicate pair in sky blue and pale blue-green, featuring a soft, beautiful iridescence reminiscent of opal. They are crafted into K14GF earrings with a secure locking mechanism (German hook) to prevent them from falling or getting lost. Awakened from a long slumber spanning ancient times, these Roman glasses seem to whisper stories as you gaze upon them. Size: Roman Glass: 20×11×3mm / 18×12×2mm Metal Material: K14GF (Hallmarked) *The surface of glass buried underground for over 500 years exhibits a sparkling iridescence.

Each piece is unique, with no two being exactly alike. Enjoy these Roman glasses, a crystallization of ancient romance, showcasing the beautiful interplay between human creation and natural weathering. ◇ Gift wrapping is available.
