Late Roman/Byzantine Jewish Amber Color Glass Amulet with Menorah

About the Item

Late Roman to Early Byzantine, ca. 300 to 500 CE. A rare and beautiful amulet of a generally circular form with a flat bottom, a raised periphery, and an integral suspension loop, mold-pressed from attractive cobalt Amber glass to depict a seven-lamp (six branches plus the central one) menorah upon the recessed front face. The menorah was historically used by Moses in the sanctuary he established in the wilderness and later in the famous Temple of Jerusalem. A nine-lamp variation of the menorah is traditionally used for the observance of Chanukah (Hanukah). A lovely Judaica piece bearing the likeness of a symbol of Judaism that originated in ancient times – that is also the featured emblem on the coat of arms for modern-day Israel. Every item in Menorah Galleries is accompanied by a lifetime “Certificate of Authenticity” and additional documentation and information regarding the individual artifact and its culture.
