Product description
This snake bracelet is a replica of an example from the first half of the 1st century BC. It was discovered in the Roman city of Pompeii.
The snake was a common motif in Roman art and jewelry, believed to protect the prosperity of the household.
In ancient Greek culture and the Nordic Bronze Age, the snake symbolized healing. The snake worship seen in Roman culture may have originated in Macedonia, where the snake was believed to be a symbol of fertility. For this reason, women gladly wore jewelry in the shape of a snake.
