Unique Art Jewelry Inspired By The Met Collection.
A Remarkable Gold-And-Lapis Earring (6Th–5Th Century B.C.) In The Met’S Cesnola Collection Of Cypriot Art Bears A Robust Crescent Or “Boat-Shaped” Design, Presented Here In Green Jade. Cyprus’S Positioning As A Way Station For Ships In The Eastern Mediterranean Is Reflected In The Diversity Of The Island’S Jewelry. The Boat Shape Was Evidently Popular In The Ancient World; The Museum Houses A Number Of Cypriot, Greek, Roman, And Etruscan Earrings With A Similar Silhouette.
