Summary
[edit]Description02024 Silver bead, granulation, filigree, 10th-century, Dramino.jpg |
English: The hoard dates to the period after 950. The bead of silver plate consists of two symmetrical segments. Its surface is decorated with the so-called filigree – a goldsmithing technique, which entails decorating the surface of an object with thin wires – smooth or twisted around their own axis, as well as narrow ribbons obtained by flattening the wire with a hammer. In many cases, filigree was used with fine metal granules. Filigree and granulation were used to decorate pendants of various types, as well as beads and earrings. Metal beads were rarely used as a sole decoration, usually they were used as elements of necklaces made up of several or more beads, as well as other materials, such as glass, and with pendants of different types. Beads made of solid metal sheets and openwork beads made of wires were also used as elements of earrings. In addition to two-segment beads, we can also distinguish biconical, oblong, so-called raspberry beads, tubular, corncob-shaped and round ones. |
