Description:
The Langobards in Italy often embellished their own jewelry with gems carved centuries earlier by Roman or Etruscan craftsmen. These gems were no doubt valued for their antiquity as well as their local character, as they linked their Langobardic wearers to the illustrious peoples who preceded them on the Italian peninsula.
