Rings From the Roman Era. Gold, Amethyst, & Carnelian (From 1-300 B.C.) at the Getty Villa Museum


We got a chance to visit the Getty Villa in Pacific PalisadesCA. 

The J. Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Villa in Malibu opened on January 28, 2006, after the completion of a major renovation project. As a museum and educational center dedicated to the study of the arts and cultures of ancient Greece, Rome, and Etruria, the Getty Villa serves a varied audience through exhibitions, conservation, scholarship, research, and public programs. The Villa houses approximately 44,000 works of art from the Museum's extensive collection of Greek, Roman, and Etruscan antiquities, of which over 1,200 are on view.

Here we have three rings made of gold. The Center Stones are Amethyst & Carnelian. Dated from 1-300 B.C. from the Roman Era. Amazing.
