Oracle

A Roman gold jewel, circa 100 - 200 AD, on an 18ct gold and ruby rondelle necklace

An elegant and resonant piece, Oracle centres on a finely worked Roman gold disc, dating to the 2nd century AD.  Once likely worn as an earring, this jewel carries a whisper of personal meaning.

In Roman society, jewellery held unique significance for married women: unlike the rest of their property, it remained their own and could be used to buy, sell or trade. This ancient piece was worn as an object of beauty but also served as quiet currency —  a symbol of personal power.
