Delve into a narrative of divine mythology with this exquisite Thrace Tetradrachm Pendant, suspended from a contemporary 18K gold paper clip chain, 55cm long. This ancient coin, minted between 90-75 BC, is a testament to the grandeur of Greek legends captured in precious metal.
One face of the coin presents the enigmatic Dionysus, the god of wine, festivity, and the flourishing earth, crowned with an ivy wreath—a timeless emblem of vitality and celebration. Turn the pendant over, and you are met with the stalwart image of Heracles, clad in the impenetrable lion's skin, his club poised for the trials set by myth and legend.
Encircling this piece of ancient history is a meticulously crafted bezel of 18K gold, its form subtly echoing the ivy of Dionysus's crown, a harmonious link to the chic paper clip chain that bears it. This distinctive design allows the wearer to showcase either deity according to their mood or moment, a dual-sided homage to the richness of the past.
This necklace is not just a piece of jewelry but a conversation starter, a piece of art that bears the weight of centuries. It is designed for the discerning individual who appreciates the confluence of history, art, and fashion, offering a unique way to connect with the bygone eras while making an elegant statement in the modern world.
