Nice.

I think the gold / garnet combination is some of the most impressive stuff out there. Doubt I will ever find any, but it would be just fantastic to see it peep from the soil.

Is this anything to do with the cemetery that was found in Suffolk back in November?

You have to wonder just how they were capable of crafting such delicate and stunning objects with the tools they had at the time.  ??? Stunning, when I find mine this year I will compare it  ;D ;D ;D
