Ancient Roman

Roman bronze discoidal fibula with concentric decoration – 2nd–3rd centuries AD. Culture: Roman. Period: Roman Empire, 2nd–3rd centuries AD. Material: Bronze. Auction description: Elegant Roman bronze discoidal fibula, belonging to the tradition of small personal adornments used during the Roman Empire to fasten cloaks and other garments. It features an attractive circular design, topped by a small central relief button, surrounded by a well-defined concentric ring. The outer zone incorporates various sunken geometric fields, arranged radially, which provide balance and ornamental richness to the composition. This type of fibula constitutes an interesting manifestation of Roman metalworking, in which artisans combined functionality and decoration through elegantly geometric forms. The piece preserves a beautiful green archaeological patina, with turquoise, ochre tones and mineral deposits that accentuate the reliefs and impart notable aesthetic appeal. Condition: Good conservation of the ornamental disk, with visible concentric decoration, surface wear, and attractive old patina.
