| Reproduction Greek Coin from Peloponnesus (Sicyon) . 465BC - 443BC 925 silver pendant |
 |
Sicyon, during the period of its greatest prosperity, consisted of an acropolis about two miles from the Corinthian Gulf, a lower town at its foot, and a port-town. The large number of its coins still extant sufficiently attests the ancient wealth and commercial importance of the city. It does not appear to have struck many coins before the Persian wars, nor indeed does its money become plentiful much before B.C. 400, but from this time down to the Roman conquest (B.C. 146) the Sicyonian mint would seem to have been the most prolific in the whole of Peloponnesus. After the close of the Lamian war, B.C. 322, Sicyon passed for a time into the hands of the Macedonians, under whose rule tetradrachms were struck there, with the name and types of Alexander the Great .
In Greek mythology, the Chimera (Greek Χίμαιρα (Chímaira); Latin Chimaera) is a monstrous creature made of the parts of multiple animals. Chimera was one of the offspring of Typhon and Echidna and sister of such monsters as Cerberus and the Lernaean Hydra. Descriptions vary – some say it had the body of a goat, the tail of a snake or dragon and the head of a lion, though others say it had heads of both the goat and lion, with a snake for a tail.

Original ancient designs (not poor imitations) used on jewellery pieces are quite scarce to find. Therefore, be always very cautious with sellers that claim to sell "original" or "authentic" ancient Greek designs (even if they state that a guarantee will be provided).

All our jewellery line is of finest fidelity and quality (925 silver or 14/18K gold). Trust Greek people for buying Greek-themed jewellery!
We will unconditionally refund any customer that will prove our designs are not 100% the same to the original ancient Greek design (slight artistic variations may occur).

All our jewellery line is hand-made, and not mass produced as is the case with the majority of jewellery pieces of this style, widely available on the market. We have signed exclusive contracts with local, officially certified craftsmen who specialize in producing unique designs and in very limited volumes. We urge you to compare our pieces with any other Greek-designed jewellery. The difference will be obvious…
Pencil Usage: In one of the pictures presented we use "the pencil" as a measurement tool. Thus, one can easily imagine the actual size of the item. |
