Description

A gorgeous Anglo Saxon gold and garnet pendant, English and circa 5th -7th century AD. Although the bail/suspension loop has been damaged it does not distract the eye from such a scare piece. The garnet sits quite proud and still holding tight, a few minor chips on the surface and no doubt the garnet was from india or ancient Sri Lanka.
Worn by a very wealthy Saxon female not just as a statement piece but also spiritual.
The Almandine Garnet was very popular amongst Germanic tribes that inhabited Northern Europe, as shown in excavations from Sutton Hoo.
Size 1.7cm with part of the loop and 1.2cm wide. Thank you for having a
