Gold Pendant with Ancient Greek Coin

Pendant featuring an ancient Greek bronze coin dating from 359–336 BC, minted during the reign of Philip II of Macedon, who succeeded in expanding his kingdom over most of the Greek world of the time. His son and successor, Alexander the Great, would later transform it into an empire.

The obverse depicts the profile of Apollo, with his hair held in place by a ribbon known as a taenia, while the reverse features a horse and rider, possibly representing Alexander the Great as a child. The coin displays a beautiful green patina.

In our workshop, we have handcrafted a beautiful 18K gold setting to protect and enhance its beauty, transforming it into a unique piece of jewelry more than 2,300 years after it was created.

Possessing an antique, an object that forms part of history, produces a special sensation: we wonder who it belonged to, what the time in which the first owner lived was like, what their life was like...

The pieces of this collection, in which we handcraft the settings of the antique objects, are exclusive, as there are no two alike. In addition to its beauty and historical value, the antique as much as the gold will increase in value with thime, but above all, this piece will forever form part of your personal history.
