Romano-Egyptian Bronze Fibula + 2 Roman Bronze Fibulae

Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $400**

Egypt, Romano Egyptian Period, ca. 30 BCE to 2nd century CE; Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE. A lovely set of 3 bronze or tinned bronze fibulae from across the geographic reaches of the ancient Roman Empire. First is a V-shaped brooch made from tinned bronze with segmented arms and a spiraling pin. A petite Roman U-shaped brooch is formed from bronze and has a series of molded segments comprising its body. The largest bronze fibula is Romano-Egyptian in origin and has capital-form terminals before ending in a spiraling pin base and a curved, bifurcated pin catch. Size of largest (Romano Egyptian): 3.7" L x 2.625" W (9.4 cm x 6.7 cm)

Provenance: ex-Nancy and Dr. E.F. Simpson collection, Los Angeles, California, USA, acquired from 1970 to 2000

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.

A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany all winning bids.

We ship worldwide to most countries and handle all shipping in-house for your convenience.

#172038

Condition

Pins on largest and smallest fibulae are repaired with areas of restoration; pin on V-shaped fibula is likely not original to the body and can be removed. Each piece has light abrasions and encrustations with softening to some finer details particularly on 2 Roman fibulae. Nice patina throughout. Pins are very fragile, so we do not recommend attempting to move them or for wear on any garments.
