The ULTIMATE statement Piece!



A 2,000 year old gold earring was just found beneath a parking lot near Jerusalem's Old City. And it's HOT!!!
"A large pearl inlaid in gold with two drop pieces, each with an emerald and pearl set in gold," which would obviously have belonged to someone of status. Because Jerusalem was sacked so many times, and most precious metals were melted down or sold, such intact finds are rare — especially Roman ones. The piece is valuable not merely for its beauty but because it "brings attention to the life of women in antiquity."
