Roman Collection

The Sacred Symbols of Imperial Rome

Our Roman Collection draws inspiration from the magnificent artistic traditions of the Roman Empire, where jewelry was not merely adornment but a declaration of divine favor, imperial power, and connection to the gods themselves. Each laurel leaf and coin motif carries the weight of centuries of Roman cultural heritage and mythological significance.

The laurel wreath, sacred to Apollo, god of light, music, and prophecy, symbolized victory, honor, and divine protection. Roman emperors and victorious generals wore laurel crowns to show they had received the blessing of the gods. Our delicate laurel leaf motifs capture this ancient symbol of triumph, crafted to bestow the wearer with confidence and success. The leaves were also sacred to Daphne, the nymph who transformed into a laurel tree to escape Apollo's pursuit, representing transformation and eternal beauty.

The coin accents honor the Roman tradition of numismatic artistry, where imperial portraits and divine symbols were struck onto precious metals to spread the emperor's image and divine authority throughout the empire. These coins often bore the likeness of Venus, goddess of love and beauty, or Fortuna, goddess of luck and fate. Our collection's coin elements channel this imperial majesty, each piece designed to bring the wearer good fortune and divine favor.

The rich red gemstone details pay homage to Mars, god of war and protector of Rome, whose sacred color was crimson. Romans believed that red stones, particularly garnets and rubies, carried the protective power of Mars and could shield warriors in battle while ensuring victory. The pearls themselves represent the tears of Venus as she emerged from the sea foam, each one a gift from the goddess of beauty to mortals worthy of divine love and protection.
