Description

Featuring an ancient coin embossed with the face of a fearsome wolf, strung on a rectangular link chain, this necklace is available in 18K gold-plated or sterling silver. The Capitoline Wolf is the representation of Rome that has been with the people of that region for as long as the city's existence, stretching back into ancient times. She is shown suckling the twins Romulus and Remus. They were conceived to a mortal mother, and a God-father: the deity Mars. The King of that time perceived their power, and ordered the twins be drowned. However, they were saved by the God of the River, Tiberinus, and nursed to strength and health by the famous She-Wolf. Handcrafted and individually cast. Each piece is unique, which we believe is what gives it its beauty. Gold-plating is delicate by nature, and it is normal for it to wear over time. Items that have experienced wearing can be taken to a local jeweller for re-plating, should the customer so desire. Cleopatra's Bling is not responsible for any costs incurred. Gold-plating is an excellent choice for a customer looking for a accessibly priced item not intended for daily wear. Customers looking for an option for everyday wear should consider vermeil, sterling silver, or solid gold as an alternative to gold-plating, particularly for items that come into frequent, close contact with the skin.
