Roman Glass is an ancient glass, discovered in archaeological excavation sites in Israel and in other Mediterranean countries.

The fine Sterling Silver Roman Glass Jewelry is one of the most popular types and styles originated from Israel enabling to wear an entirely unique piece of 2,000-year-old history.

The glass in this aqua-hued jewelry began life as a vase, jug, or vessel. Uncovered from ancient Roman archaeological sites in modern-day Israel, each fragment has been textured and colored by centuries of wind and weather.

Each bears the marks of not only its past life as a household or temple object but also the very earth in which it rested until being transformed into a unique accent.

Each piece of Roman glass is framed by a sterling silver bezel to create a unique roman glass jewel.

Ancient Israel, due to its large stretches of sandy dunes and beaches, was one of the largest glass producers of the Roman Empire. These same sands helped preserve the glass through the centuries, shaping and tempering it into the jewelry-quality pieces being excavated today.

Today the fragments of the 2000 years old roman glass, that were once part of the lip of a goblet, jar, or other vessels, are used in Israel to create beautiful jewelry that mixes the typical blue and green old glass excavated from archaeological digs with silver or gold creating a piece of art and history to wear with setiments and love.

The roman glass rings are set into an artistic  filigree sterling silver base, handcrafted by Yemenite craftsmen.
