Thank you SUZAN,
This is a very valuable photo as it is the first one i see testifying for the existence of the very scarce round "worm holes" fibulas"
The HIRZ (necklace pendantà is HUUUGE!!
This is a truly wonderful image thank you for posting it Suzan...learned a lot from it already

Beautiful picture, love the amber bead necklace! Great design.
I want that hirz pendant!
I've never seen amber beads used this way, fantastic image Suzan!

Again, those round worm holes fibulas are wonderful and i am for once very happy to see a women wearing two sets of fibula pairs the same time. Definetely not an oddity
Very rich woman.
Does anyone have an idea about the black and white bracelets??? intriguing!
Odd indeed about the black and white bracelets. Early plastics? Used to help avoid chafing by the big, assumingly heavy bangles?
