The manufacture of replicas of early medieval “gombiky” from Mikulčice, Great Moravia, 9th century AD.
Original language description
The aim of this paper is to present the different steps in the manufacture of the main types of gombiky recovered in Mikulčice, one of the most important Great Moravian centres in the 9th century. Gombiky are hollow spherical pendants found in the graves of the wealthiest individuals in Great Moravia. They are made of gold, silver and gilded copper alloys and are decorated by chasing, repoussé work or filigree and granulation work. The manufacture of replicas of the main types of gombiky from Mikulčice provided a better understanding of the construction, manufacturing techniques and stages of fabrication of this type of jewel. The experimental manufacture also provided a measure of the approximate length of time of manufacture, the level of difficulty and weight of precious metal used for each type of gombik.
