The Most Expensive Gold Antique in the World – $35 Million Persian Necklace.
This stunning necklace is considered to be one of the rarest privately owned gold artifacts in the World! Known as ‘The Star Crescent Necklace’ it is actually an ancient jewellery set that archeologists call ‘Parthian-Sarmatian Royal Gold Necklace and Amulet‘.
It was made somewhere between the 2 century B.C. and 2 century A.D. for a Persian king (or potentially a queen). For many years the necklace was passed down from one tribal ruler to another, sometimes peacefully, at other times by conquest, and over its lifetime could have belonged to both, kings as well as queens. The set was worn directly on the chest to display power, wealth, and divinity of the bearer. It is widely known that throughout various civilizations large gold necklaces were specifically worn by royalty to indicate their high social status.
This necklace is believed to have been first created in Parthia, an ancient Persian empire that existed from 247 BC to 224 AD, but eventually came into possession of the Sarmatians, the legendary nomadic Indo-Iranian warriors that spread throughout central parts of the Eurasian Steppe. It is them who eventually buried it with one of their tribal kings in what is called a Kurgan, a pyramid-like tomb constructed over a single grave that is filled with precious items for the afterlife. The necklace remained buried with its king for centuries until 1930s when it was discovered by the Soviet archeologists.
