Title
Early-medeival stud: Garnet inlaid gold stud
Description
English: Description: Incomplete Early Saxon gold circular setting or mount with a domed cloisonné garnet setting. The object has a sheet gold back plate which exhibits a scar, with the remains of what may be a missing loop projecting from it. The back plate is framed by a beaded wire collar consisting of narrow, regular beads, some of which have been dented during deposition. Within the thick outer collar is a thinner inner collar consisting of two strands of gold wire twisted around one another, one plain wire and one beaded wire. The central circular setting has an outer strip bent inwards to retain the garnets. Within this are two gold cell walls forming a cross. At the terminal of each cross is a curved gold cell wall, forming eight cells altogether. All of the cells retain a red/purple garnet cut to fit the shape of the cells. Visible behind the garnets is the thin gold leaf holding the garnets in place. This has been decorated with an impressed cross-hatching.
