Wear a piece of history on your finger with this sterling silver ring. Its elegant shield-shape crown is inlaid with a piece of authentic Roman glass that was found in archeological diggings in the land of Israel. The green blue shimmering glass goes back two thousand years to the days of the Roman Empire, making this a ring that joins the past and present.

What is Roman glass? It dates back to the years when Israel was ruled by the Romans and glass production flourished. Excavations have now revealed these hidden pieces of glass – glowing with breathtaking hues from being buried for over 2,000 years in Israel’s mineral-rich sand.
