Treasures of the World Artifact Spotlight:
Roman Molds
Rectangular shaped one-sided jewelry mold, used for making jewelry such as pendants, earrings, etc. The jewelry was made by the "lost wax" technique, which was widely known from the Late Bronze Age onwards. This technique involves the following stages: two stone or terracotta molds are made with the form of the jewelry worked on them in reverse, in intaglio. Precisely half the piece was carved on each mold. Molten wax was poured into these molds, which was then replaced by molten metal. This particular mold is especially for necklaces and earrings.
Byzantine Plaque
Carved limestone plaque, one side with the image of Jesus crucified, the other with a cross. Two holes on one side for hanging.
