Description

Disc pendant (akrafokonmu); lost-wax cast in gold. Bi-facial with openwork decoration. Centre of the pendant is formed from two circles that are cast with a void between them. They are decorated with nine small flat coiled spirals with raised bosses which are arranged in a symmetrical pattern. The main body of the disc pendant is configured into a series of concentric open-work rings that fan out from the centre. The rings are subdivided by equally spaced vertical lines that give the overall casting a net or webbed appearance. Some of the areas that were intended to be open-work have mis-cast as solid. There is a hollow tube for a suspension cord that extends across the pendant’s width.
