Approx. 20 carat yellow gold, stamped, rectangular plate in the middle with two rectangular plates attached on the side, two broad bands with eyelets attached to each end. On a plate cord wire soldering in the form of S-shaped spirals, on the middle plate two-layered oval agate, approx. 60 g, flanked by two oval carnelian intaglio, each with a standing kithara or lyre player, one next to a column, both figures in long robes, “possibly Apollo Kitharoidos” [these are female figures in my opinion]
At the left lower corner of the plate there is a pendant: the rosette and three suspensions made of wire with lapis lazuli and jade beads and one rosette end.
