So THAT'S where it is! I think I must have dropped it while I was elongating Cornwall that time.
So careless of you! ;) :)
Beautiful. Do you think they went to bed wearing it? I imagine it was made to fit?
Suspect too delicate! Another intriguing Bronze Age wearable item here, fwiw :)https://twitter.com/caitlinrgreen/status/793954326104440833 …
Such a beautiful piece, incredible how it has survived.
I hhhad no idea such items were in Britain at that time. Was it local or imported? Where can I find out more?
They're fascinating :) More here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_lunula …
Beautiful piece
That's superb It's a model for sixties ("scanda") jewellery
Beautiful, represents position and power. I guess for a male chiefdom?
I really love the Varna necropolis jewelry the best!
Gorgeous!
Is that British gold?
Beautiful and thank you! Any major Cornish finds from 6-7th century?
