          Fwiw, has been suggested that piece had a symbolic intent, w/ the seven chicks representing the seven provinces of the Lombardic kingdom...

          @caitlinrgreen A stunning piece of work. Was it found intact? How big is it? Looks to be maybe similar in size to a dinner plate.

          Fabulous, isn't it! I recall reading a paper on the Sutton Hoo goods (in ASSAH 2?) that suggested they must have access to methods that are otherwise documented only in the post-medieval period...

          I think there may have been a documentary where a leading jeweller was asked how a piece from the collection could have been made and they were flabbergasted!
