This extremely impressive piece holds its honorary item code number #1 in our jewelry catalog since 1960 and perhaps for several good reasons as it is definitively ancient Greek and in many ways embodies, in our opinion, much of the finesse the splendour of Hellenistic and Archaic jewelry heritage.
This is more an 'arm band' rather than a bracelet as it is designed execially for the forearm - just below elbow as customarily worn in the ancient Hellenistic era.
An extremely feminine piece of jewelry of true charm for unique occasions. Due to the unusual nature of this item, it is quite size specific so please don't hesitate to contact us for more information before ordering to make sure it will have a comfortable fit.
The item is comprized of several pieces, vividly carved and assembled by skilled artisans to obtain this remarkable and solid yet fine ornament of Grecian jewelry.
The coiling snake arm-ban spans an incredible 3.5 inches!! (92 mm) along the the upper arm.
Quite a few animals had sacred significance for the Minoans. The snake cult in particular embodied a spirit that protected the home. It was this attribute of the snake by which the "snake goddess" is identified as the "household Goddess" and the welfare of the Minoan house.
