NECKLACE: Roman Glass w/pearl embellishment

Holy Land - Roman Glass Necklace

This large Roman Glass pendant has a visible patina and a nice light blue color.  The pearl is flat with lime and green coloring and accented with a light blue silk bow.  This pendant comes with a Certificate Of Authenticity card unsigned.

Admire this unique pendant made from ancient glass pieces found in the region along the historic silk road. Commonly referred to as Roman Glass, the material for these beads is derived from ancient cups, vases, and perfume containers that have sustained the travails of time. If you look carefully, you will see that these beads have a unique patina endowed by the mineral deposits where the glass lay buried.  

Note that while the material is said to be of old, possibly ancient origin, the precise age of the glass has not been independently verified.
