This antique carnelian stone pendant is a fascinating work of art, believed to have been made in the Roman Empire or Byzantium between the 4th and 15th centuries AD. Measuring 2. 1 cm long and weighing 6. 6 g, it is a remarkable piece despite its small size.
The pendant features the artistically crafted head of a man carved into the carnelian stone with astonishing detail and precision. The facial features are finely crafted and give the pendant a lifelike quality. The eyes, nose and mouth are clearly visible and convey an aura of character and personality.
The incisions could depict a variety of details, from the fine lines of the hair to the contours of the face. They may also reveal stubble or other features that give the head an authentic expression.

A truly remarkable piece that captures not only the history and culture of its era, but also the timeless beauty and importance of jewelry as an expression of identity and personality.
