@caitlinrgreen The obsession with red garnets in this period is striking. Wonder when/why/if it faded from fashion? Easy to work maybe
@MarkBrierley1 It's a fascinating question! I'll post some amazing 5thC ex later today if I remember, from Goths/similar under the Huns :)
@caitlinrgreen that's a shame.
@caitlinrgreen if i remember correctly, didn't a Pict silver hoard get melted down? I can't find anything online about it.
