Summary

Description
English: Illustration for an article on Etruscan jewelry in Once a Week magazine, volume 8, page 220. No. 2 is described as an Etruscan necklace in the collections of the British Museum, acquired from the Campana collection; it is of gold and "the diamond work between ... the ridged plates of gold ... was originally filled with what appears to have been red, grey, and green enamel." The origin and location of No. 3 is not stated in the article; it is Etruscan gold sepulchral jewelry: that is, tissue-paper-thin jewelry intended to be buried with corpses rather than exposed to the wear of use.
