Diadem

Burial at the village of Verkhne-Yablochnoye, Volgograd Region

Late 4th - first half of the 5th century

Gold, bronze, garnet

L 24 cm, h 4 cm

Fashioned from a single piece of bronze, this diadem is in the form of a narrow band supporting a frieze of fourteen figured projections. On the front it is overlaid with a thin gold sheet. This side is incrusted with garnets in settings surrounded by granulation. The spaces between the garnets are decorated with triangles formed by granulation. An ornamental border of two twisted and one straight wire runs along the upper and lower edges of the band. The frieze is edged with a single twisted wire. The two small holes at each end of the diadem were for strings or laces.
