How to make the earrings..

These magnificently bright diamond hoop earrings have 20 round brilliant diamonds 0.65ct total weight. The diamonds are 100% natural.

Diocletian possessed excellent leadership skills even beyond military matters. As emperor, he implemented enormous policy changes that he is most famous for, known as the "Diocletian Reform".

This coin was minted in the Greek city of Parion, at the height of Greek culture and art and is the essence of Classic Greece. The gorgon was a famous Greek monster but why its face was used on these coins from Parion is still a mystery. Sometimes the gorgon head had wings, but never on the coins of Parion.
