posted on 2021-10-27, 19:21 authored by Helena HamerowHelena Hamerow
Gold pendant set with cabochon garnet, length 2.3cm. The garnet very domed and dished at back (shows where backplate dinged in) enclosed in gold collar with two wire beaded frame (exactly like that on M 6528. Obviously the two were mounted by the same man.) The loop is very small, grooved, pointed at back, and fixed by dob of solder at front, as in M 6528. Signs of wear on loop and beaded border.Lab results AuAgCuBack72262Beaded rim70282Loop71263
