Set within squat bezels are six crimson garnet cabochons that provide a chromatic contrast to the yellow gold. Delicate gold items were the ultimate symbol of wealth and status in Byzantine-age Europe.Size: 34mm x 33mm; Weight: 12gProvenance: Private UK collection; From an old British collection formed in the 1990s.
