Roman Bronze Pentagram Ring

$210.00
Item Description

A Roman bronze ring of solid, practical form, featuring an engraved pentagram on its oval bezel. The design is simple and direct, with the broad shoulders tapering into a sturdy hoop and a naturally developed green patina across the surface. The bezel features an incised five-pointed star framed by light punched dot decoration, adding subtle texture to the piece. In the Roman world, the pentagram (pentalpha) was associated with harmony, balance, and protection, and was often used as an apotropaic symbol. Rings of this kind may therefore have carried a symbolic function alongside their everyday use.
