Ca. 300-100 BC A matched pair of gold earrings, each of a hoop thickening to intricately decorated spindle-shaped terminals attached to a circular gold plaque with a filigree border set with a garnet cabochon. The item has undergone X-ray fluorescence analysis to confirm the metallurgical content suggesting its ancient origin and lack of modern trace elements. Size: L:43mm / W:20mm ; 8.60 (set of 2)g Provenance: From the private collection of Mr. R. Unger; previously with a London gallery; acquired in the 1980s on the UK art market.
