Roman hairpin with a naked Venus
Venus - goddess of love
Venus, the name alone immediately brings to mind Sandro Botticelli's beautiful painting "Birth of Venus". The depiction of this goddess has always been one of the most popular motifs, and not only in antiquity. Her timeless sculptures - one of the most famous is the Venus of Milos - or the beautiful ivory carved gems or small figures of the goddess of love have always been in great demand. One of the most interesting representations of this type is the goddess of love in the form of a hairpin.
- Length of the hairpin approx. 12 cm
- polished smooth surface
- Date: 3rd-4th century AD
- Comparable finds: Nîmes (F), Badalona (E), Rome (I)

Venus hairpin - a small work of art
This small sculpture depicts a pretty, slender, naked woman. With her arms stretched upwards, her hands held together and her slightly curved body, she radiates a special, erotic elegance and a seductive feeling of luxury. She gives every hairstyle that "certain something". Especially on special social occasions in combination with an elegant (evening) dress, it is a good idea to wear your hair up in a somewhat severe style, and the Venus hairpin really does add the finishing touch, perhaps even making for the most interesting conversation of the evening.
Venus hairpin - a handcrafted masterpiece
Each Venus hairpin is individually filed from bone and carefully polished by hand. The individual variations and characteristics of the underlying natural "workpieces" make each Venus hairpin a unique piece of art.
Venus hairpin - a small piece of Roman history
The special feature of the Forum Traiani products is not only the careful selection of high-quality products, but also the particular emphasis placed on faithful adherence to the real, historical background. This Venus hairpin is based on several archaeological finds, e.g. in Nimes (France), Badalona (Spain) or Rome, and dates back to around the 3rd to 4th century AD.
In fact, the Venus hairpin should not be missing from any beautiful woman's jewelry box, because with this hairpin, every woman rightly feels just as elegant, sublime, beautiful and desirable as the famous goddess of love Venus.
