Description
This large closed crescent-shaped earring is a remarkable relic from either the Sa Huynh Culture of Northern Vietnam or the Chinese Yue Kingdom, dating from 500 BCE to 300 CE. The earring's dimensions, standing at 52x48x15mm, and its substantial form suggest it was a significant piece for the wearer. Composed of glass, a material valued for its beauty and rarity in ancient times, it has been exceptionally well-preserved, retaining its lustrous green hue over the centuries. Such an item not only signifies the artistic ingenuity of its time but also serves as a tangible connection to the cultural practices and adornments of ancient Southeast Asia and China.
