Object description

Ametist slipad i form av ett djur, sannolikt en ekorre, klängande på en frukt i genombrutet arbete. Ametisten är fästad i ett dubbelt snöre som hålls ihop av en grön sten. Över och under den gröna stenen är mycket små äkta pärlor trädda runt snöret.

Enligt kataloguppgift ett hängsmycke.

Detta hänge kan möjligen ha använts som gördelknapp. Gränsen mellan hänge och gördelknapp är ibland svårdragen, varför detta föremål upptas som både och. Jämför bild i Camman 1962, s. 209, nr 117./CR

Important to know about the information in the online collection database

Users of the database are warned that some records may include language or terminology dating from the 19th and 20th centuries which depicted people in ways that are obsolete and/or offensive. We are conscious that the inclusion of such terminology is problematic. As an institution, we have chosen to include this historic information in our database because it is part of the documentation for the object, photograph, or archival item. Where known, objects associated with, or photographs depicting, ritual or ceremonial activity have been hidden in the publicly accessible database as there may be restrictions relating to the age, gender, initiation and ceremonial status or clan of the person who may see them. The database may also include the names of deceased persons, which could cause sadness or distress, particularly to relatives of these people.
