EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print captures the mesmerizing beauty of an Almond-Shaped Pendant, dating back to the 5th or 6th century. Crafted by the Byzantine School, this pendant showcases a harmonious blend of materials including gold, lapis lazuli, garnet, and glass. The intricate design and ornate detailing make it a true masterpiece of early Byzantine period jewelry. Measuring at a height of 5.10 cm and width of 2.90 cm, this pendant is a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of its creators. The almond shape adds elegance and sophistication to its overall appearance while symbolizing fertility and abundance. The use of precious stones like garnet enhances its allure by adding vibrant pops of color against the golden backdrop. Lapis lazuli further enriches the piece with its deep blue hue reminiscent of celestial skies. Displayed in Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA, this pendant has been preserved for centuries as part of their collection thanks to Grace Rainey Rogers Fund's contribution. Its historical significance cannot be overstated as it represents not only an era but also serves as a window into Byzantium's rich cultural heritage.
