These small globular pendants were popular among common women in ancient Rome. Some have been described as prostitute's pendants and that view is widely published on the internet. This example is 9.4mm, about 3/8” diameter of bun form with the bottom radially scored in twelve spokes, a reference to Rota Fortuna, the Wheel of Fortune. It has been professionally refurbished with the 24karat gold surface restored. It is suspended on a gilt neck chain for modern wear and is gift boxed with a certificate of authenticity.
