Ornament. Culture: Dutch. Date: early 19th century.One of the most recognizable and interesting aspects of Dutch costume is the ear-iron. The Frisian style of this headwear is a wide band of metal fitting around the back of the head with ornaments at the temples. The shape and style of the ornaments were indicative of their status, their husband's or son's profession, their locality, or even their religion. The ear-iron was usually worn with a lace cap which partially covered the metal. This type of gold filigree work is said to have originated in East Frisia in the 15th century when gold was first discovered in that area. The high quality and intricate designs of these examples suggest the wearer's wealth and high social status. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Gold Half Moon-Shaped Earring with Peacocks late 6th-7th century Byzantine Opus interrasile was a technique used by goldsmiths to make elegant jewelry from the 200s through the 600s. Designs were traced onto sheets of gold; the background was punched with holes of various sizes to highlight the pattern; and fine details were then worked on the surface. The patterns formed by piercing the metal ground encouraged the play of light and shadow across an object's surface.. Gold Half Moon-Shaped Earring with Peacocks 467645

Watch. Culture: French, Paris. Dimensions: Diameter: 1 1/4 in. (3.2 cm). Maker: Watchmaker: Nicolas Bernard (French, active 1560-90). Date: 16th century.A very few watchcases survive with this variety of openwork design of tour-de-force raised-and-dotted enamel. The dial, too, with black numerals on a pure white enamel chapter ring and a deep red basse-taille enamel center, is the product of a highly skilled artisan, who was almost certainly working in Paris about the middle of the seventeenth century. The pre-balance spring movement of the watch is signed Nicolas Bernard AParis. While there are several clockmakers named Bernard, or Benard, known to have been working in Paris in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, there is no record of a Nicolas Bernard before 1636, when a man by that name was made a master clockmaker there. By the time of his death in 1670, he had become a merchant clockmaker and a burgher of Paris. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Curb Bit of Johannes Philip of Lamberg, Bishop of Passau (1651-1712). Culture: German. Dimensions: H. 12 1/2 in. (31.8 cm); W. 6 1/4 in. (15.9 cm); Wt. 1 lb. 15.1 oz. (881.7 g). Date: dated 1702.This bit belonged to Johannes Philip of Lamberg (1652 - 1712) who was Count of Lamberg, canon priest of Passau, Salzburg, and Olomouc, and imperial counselor. He became bishop of Passau and Prince of the Holy Empire in 1689, cardinal-priest in 1700, and finally cardinal of San Silvestro in Capite in 1701. The long purchases are decorated with two collared bracke dogs holding a mitre (the bracke dog is the heraldic device the Pottwein family, to which Johannes Philip was related). Each oval comb is bearing the heraldic wolf of Passau, with a pivoting scrolling ornament terminating with an acorn (on each comb a second hole, now empty, could have received another one). The traditional lower loops are entirely covered by the embossed and chiseled great arms of Philip of Lamberg, in a heart-shape

Salver, c. 1907. Carlo Bugatti (Italian, 1856-1940), Adrien-Aurélien Hebrard (French, 1866-1937). Gilt silver and ivory; overall: 14.6 x 33 cm (5 3/4 x 13 in.). This tea and coffee service, salver, and table, together with some now missing cups, were all designed by Carlo Bugatti as an ensemble and presented at the 1902 exposition devoted to decorative arts in Turin, Italy. The set was probably acquired from Bugatti's 1907 exhibition at the Galerie Hébrard in Paris by a wealthy South African widow, Anna Blake, who was living there at the time. Some of the animal and insect motifs suggest mythical beasts or the fossils of prehistoric animals. When Mrs. Blake returned to Cape Town, she took these and other pieces designed by Bugatti with her, and they remained in South Africa throughout her lifetime.

Curb Bit. Culture: German, Saxony. Dimensions: H. 12 3/4 in. (32.4 cm); W. 5 in. (12.7 cm); Wt. 2 lb. 3.1 oz. (995.1 g). Date: second half 16th century.According to contemporary equestrian manuals, this severe mouthpiece was designed for horses with a bad mouth, low bars (the part of the horses' jaw without teeth), a thick tongue, arming lips (lips placed between the bars and the mouthpiece). It is also designed to correct the horse which leans too much on the bit and forces the hand. The rolling bead at the top of the trebuchet (the central swinging piece) has a direct action on the palate and holds the head in place.This type of bit is called a geschraubt Biss in German, literally a 'screwed bit', a kind of adjustable dressage bit popular in Germany in the 16th and 17th centuries. The three lengths of the shanks (the levers on the sides of the bit to which the reins were attached), allow the rider to adjust the severity of their leverage effect. In its shortest position the

Pendant with a Pelican in Her Piety. Culture: probably Spanish. Dimensions: Height: 3 5/16 in. (8.4 cm). Date: first quarter 17th century.The pelican sustaining her young by means of her own blood, here represented by the ruby mounted on the breast of the bird, is the Christian symbol for loving sacrifice and hence for Christ the Redeemer. From the Middle Ages onward jewels have been presented as votive offerings to religious shrines or cult figures, and the religious nature of this jewel suggests that it may have had some such provenance. Charles Oman has noted the existence in Spain of several richly endowed shrines as well as many lesser ones before the Napoleonic invasions of 1808.1 The widespread destruction and looting by the French armies was followed by further depredations of religious treasure by both radical and impecunious governments throughout the century, but the last of the great treasuries was not dispersed until its sale in 1870 by the canons of the Cathedral of th
