Elegant in their simplicity, these ancient earrings once adorned the ears of a woman who lived when Rome ruled the world. Who was she? Maybe a Priestess at the temple of Venus? A dancer who performed at the governor's palace? The pampered daughter of a noble house? Our imaginations must fill in what time has forgotten; the only thing we know for certain is what jewel she wore. Yet to hold them in our hands as that roman woman once did is to establish a bond with her across the ages. - (SJ.0183)
