Historical Curiosities 

In Roman religion, the serpent-shaped Genius was the guardian spirit benevolent of the fate of families but also of individuals. In ancient Rome, the serpent was a highly symbolic figure, associated with protection and healing.

In particular, snake-shaped jewelry was very popular in Pompeii, used both as an ornament and as a protective amulet. The serpent was closely linked to the figure of Asclepius, the god of medicine, and wearing a ring with this shape meant invoking divine protection and healing. Snake-themed jewelry was not only fashion, but also talismans against the evil eye and other negative forces.
