A PAIR OF GOLD EARRINGS, BYZANTINE PERIOD, 600 - 800 A.D.

The earrings feature a finely crafted hoop design, adorned with intricate filigree work that reflects the exceptional skill of Byzantine jewellers. Dangling from each hoop is a circular pendant with a central rosette motif, surrounded by delicate granulation and small ornamental spheres, showcasing the characteristic opulence and attention to detail of Byzantine goldsmithing.


The design of these earrings would have been both a display of wealth and a statement of the wearer's refined taste, as jewelry in the Byzantine era often served to signify social status and personal faith. The preservation of these earrings highlights their enduring beauty and the advanced craftsmanship of the period.
