Pair of Roman Gold Earrings with bead design. Perfectly wearable. Circa 1-4th century AD. Hoops and pendants were ubiquitous in Roman earrings. In simpler types the ends often hooked together, or were fitted with a pendant club or a bezel-set conical stone. Later variations included a hoop with a shield-like decoration or a dangling pendant. Some hoops displayed an animal or a human head and beads: a style derived from Egypt and the East during the Hellenistic period, and persisting through to the second century. Most earrings at the time had long, S-shaped hooks for insertion into the earlobe. Some of the more ornate versions displayed clusters of emeralds or pearls.
The three most popular shapes for drop earrings were the club pendant, the ball pendant and the drop pendant. The club pendant, backed by an S-shaped hook, was a classic combination in the first and second centuries. The ball pendant had a hemisphere of gold attached to the customary S-shaped hook. The drop pendant hung from a bezel-set stone. Some varieties were done in sheet gold, with suspended cylinders of chalcedony. Approx size 2cm long x 1cm wide
