Historical Curiosities
Ancient Romans, especially high society women, wore earrings to demonstrate their status and sophistication. Jewelry with pendants were symbols of wealth and beauty, often inspired by natural or mythological motifs. The excavations in Pompeii have brought to light numerous similar jewels, testimony to the wealth and taste of the ancient Pompeians.

Depuis longtemps, visiter Pompéi était un de mes souhaits. J’ai pu le réaliser et ce bijou offert par une amie me relie doublement à ce magnifique voyage.
Sono bellissime e ricevute per Natale. Elegante, belle e ... classiche. Spedizione "agevolata".
È anche bella la borsa per gioielli... in velluto liscio.
In omaggio un bel signalibro e una bella busta edizioni musei Vaticani con una reproduzione di Michalangelo che si nasconde dentro. Un bel magnetico "Napoli Pop". Insomma regalo ideale per Natale come si fossi presentata a Napoli per comprarle. Sono stata fortunata! :-)
Quel joie ce petit paquet agrémenté de petites attentions, marque page, magnet, petit sac pour les boucles… et les boucles parfaites comme je les espérais
Lovely earrings! they are exactly as pictured even more beautiful in real, you feel like a roman goddess wearing it! and you don't see that kind of earrings everywhere. plus it's really fair priced and fast shipped, and I even got a magnet as a little gift, highly recommend !!
C'était un cadeau pour ma professeure d'histoire romaine.
Ces boucles sont très jolies, elles ont beaucoup plu à ma professeure.
Je vous félicite pour la rapidité à laquelle ces bijoux m'ont été livrés dans la 24 heures.
Je recommande votre établissement.
Magnífica gestión del pedido internacional a España. Enviado con gran rapidez, el artículo cumple sobradamente con las expectativas y tuvieron el detalle de adjuntar un pequeño regalo para el cliente. Un acierto absoluto
Sono belli. Sono molto ben fatti e sono arrivati bene e velocemente. Senza dubbio ripeterò il mio acquisto online al Museo. Grazie per il vostro lavoro.
Ottimo, più bello che in foto,arrivato immediatamente,cercavo una riproduzione di orecchini romani e questi sono fedelissimi agli affreschi di Pompei,un ricordo della strepitosa città romana
Me encantaron las caravanas aunque en las especificaciones decía que eran bañadas en oro y cuando me llegaron eran bañadas en bronce, lo cual me sorprendió.
