Notes
This small ornament is designed from separate parts of gold metal, then formed into one harmonious piece by hammering and engraving. The presence of a ring attached to the upper part indicates that it was designed for hanging, and the front face reflects a rectangular surface studded with red and white stones, surrounded by two human figures with arms folded. The back side is decorated with floral elements.
