Regarded as a symbol of courage, victory, honor and sacrifice, Roman soldier jewelry was particularly popular among men and was often worn in the form of a watch fob. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unassuming pendant is fashioned in 14k yellow gold and features an intaglio of the head of a Roman solider in carnelian colored glass. There is a spear coming out of the neck area of the pendant, which I'm sure is just a bad design choice, but could be interpreted in a whole other way depending on your opinion of the Roman empire. We'll leave that up to you!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pendant started its life as an earring, but sadly its mate was long lost, so we had this piece converted into a pendant to give it a second chance at life. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePendant comes on a new 10k gold chain. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__group\"\u003e\n\u003ca class=\"accordion__label\" href=\"#\"\u003e Additional Details \u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__text\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1900s \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14k gold, glass, 10k gold \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements: \u003c\/strong\u003ePendant: 5\/8\" x 5\/8\" Bail: 5\/16\" Chain: 18\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMarkings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pendant lost its 14k mark when converted.
