Like a mosaic masterpiece, this Shimmering Eclipse Roman Glass Moon Bracelet floods the wrist in lunar luminescence. Combining today’s hottest circular trend with centuries-old Roman glass shards, this bracelet is constructed of sterling silver circles that secure with a toggle clasp. Interspersed between the circles are three eclipse-shaped bezels that are embedded with shards to crystalline Roman glass. The glass accents glow with prismatic iridescence, evoking the play of light and pattern. This Shimmering Eclipse Roman Glass Moon Bracelet measures 7.5 inches long, with the widest circle having a diameter of 1 inch.
The word “eclipse” comes from the Greek term meaning “abandonment.” According to legend, the ancients believed that the sun abandoned the earth during a solar eclipse. Other legends purport that voracious dragons ate the sun during an eclipse. In fact, the sun does not completely disappear during an eclipse. Indeed, the outer ring that remains when the moon passes in front of the sun radiates like a diamond.
The breathtaking shards of Roman glass that are embedded in this bracelet’s eclipses shine with the same intensity. They date from 100 BCE to 300 CE, making them almost as old as the universe itself. Unearthed in Israel by archaeologists sifting through the fallen pillars and once magnificent cities of the Roman Empire, these ancient Roman glass accents are given a contemporary twist baby combining them with the circular and oval links that are so popular a jewelry trend.
This Shimmering Eclipse Roman Glass Bracelet is constructed of sterling silver circular links. The eclipse accents are bezel set with iridescent Roman glass. The overall length is 7.5 inches.
