"True Roman jewelry, for true Roman matrons" is the motto of my new shop, the Roman Jewelry Replicas. The motto itself is a paraphrase from the series BBC Rome that affectionados might have caught:)
At
university, I thought the Romans were boring, living monochrome lives,
all the same across the empire. Later on, as Roman-Era reenactor, I
discovered the true colors of Rome and the fascinating details of how
much they actually left behind. Jewelry is one of the things they were
not shy, modest, or monochrome about, so I chose to dwell more on the
topic, researching, visiting museums hunting jewelry-related artifacts
and depictions (the museum in Naples being, of course, one of the best),
and foremost making replicas of such earrings, necklaces and bracelets
myself. Alas, as a slave, I do not get to wear my own creations during
reenectment events, but can do so in my everyday life - historian
friends understand :)

I
fell in love with ancient Roman jewelry in all my capacities - as
historian, reenactor and artist. It thus felt natural to start creating
replicas, first for myself to wear at historical reenactment shows, then
for museums in my area, and now for everyone on Etsy. I hope you like
the items and feel free to contact me for suggestions or special orders.
Thanks for the visit! Bonum diem habeas!
