Inspired by the golden era of the Roman Empire these earrings pay homage to the imperial fora: the center of political, religious and social life in Ancient Rome. Set with two antique Roman micro-mosaics: the ruins of the Temple of Emperor Vespasian (81-87 AD) & the Arch of Triumph of Septimius Severus (203 AD). The detachable earrings feature classical motifs of acanthus branches. Robust colors (Burmese rubies, black onyx and black & white diamonds) underline the blood and pride of Rome & the iridescent opals represent the caducity & evolution of life. Wear these earrings to invoke the Empress within you and be a part of 2000 years of history
