Multicolored, or polychrome, jewelry was very popular in the early Byzantine world. The luminous small crosses worked in pearls and gems that hang from this exquisite necklace display both the faith and wealth of the owner.
[ Maurice Nahman, Cairo]; J. Pierpont Morgan, London and New York (until 1913); Estate of J. Pierpont Morgan(1913β1917)
