Pendant

English or French, Medieval, late 12th century
An openwork roundel with beaded border and suspension ring. Repoussé, champlevé, punched, engraved, chased, cutout, enameled, and gilded. An openwork dragon bends back to bite his coiling tail, which terminates in large blossoms. The dragon’s wing, with rinceaux in reserve, was blue enamel.
