EARLY MEDIEVAL MEROVINGIAN GOLD CROSS PENDANT WITH FOIL BACKED GARNET INLAY
A perfect quality, elegant, Merovingian period gold cross pendant set with waffle foil backed garnet. The waffle pattern, stamped on extremely thin golden foil, seems almost impossibly intricate for a hand-made object. A particularly refined example of the type.
