Item Details
Description
The bead’s earthy color palette and swirl design are characteristic of glass items from the Hellenistic period, specifically around the 2nd to 1st century BCE. This era witnessed the proliferation of glass as a decorative material, influenced by the spread of Hellenistic culture across the Mediterranean and Near East. Such beads were crafted by winding molten glass around a core, then adding additional colors while the glass was still hot. This piece may have been part of a necklace or bracelet, used both for personal adornment and as a status symbol. The craftsmanship suggests it was produced in a cosmopolitan center of Hellenistic culture, where artisans blended artistic influences from across Alexander the Great's former empire.

Provenance:
Originating from a historic collection in Anatolia.

Blockchain Verification:
This bead is offered with an optional ERC-1155 token on the Ethereum network to verify its authenticity. Interested parties may acquire the token by providing their Ethereum wallet address starting with "0x". Acquisition of the token is not obligatory and may be declined.
