Vintage laurel wreath necklace

Laurel wreath or a branch of laurel - a symbol of glory, victory or peace.
In ancient Greece wreaths were awarded to victors, both in athletic competitions, including the ancient Olympics made of wild olive-tree known as "kotinos" and in poetic meets; in Rome they were symbols of martial victory, crowning a successful commander during his triumph.
