Silver Sterling Ring Togate Figure Walking Right Holding Staff and Bipennis Handmade Museum Reproduction RS0001

The toga was a garment worn by men who were citizens of Rome and which consisted of a single length of wool cloth cut in a semicircle and wrapped around the body of the wearer without any fastenings. The toga was a clearly identifiable status symbol and while most togas were white, some, indicative of a person’s rank or specific role in the community, were colored or included a stripe, notably the purple one which indicated the wearer was a member of the Roman Senate. The toga has, thanks to film and literature, become the quintessential male garment of antiquity but the view is not far wrong as even the Romans themselves described themselves as the togati or ‘people of the toga.’
