14k Gold & Ruby Genuine Ancient Roman Coin Necklace (Cupid; 75 B.C.)

This delicate charm necklace features a genuine Roman Denarius Cupid coin from 75 B.C. set with a 14k gold and ruby bezel setting.

CUPID: The god of romantic love, desire, and affection; he was the son of the love goddess Venus and Mars. He is known best for his bow and arrow, which he would use to fill his subjects with love or desire. He was consistently used in stories to impart the lesson that "love conquers all".

RUBIES: long considered a stone of kings, rubies have long been considered a stone of decadence and power. It also used to be tradition to wear a ruby over one's heart which would then allow the wearer to live peacefully and to be protected from all danger.
