Bracelet, Late Bronze, Moura

2017 Replicas and Reproductions

Gilded silver reproduction of one gold tubular bracelet - Au191 - exhumed from an occasional discovery during agricultural work at one big farm (Herdade do Álamo) in the region of Moura (Beja - Alentejo), from the Archaic Jewellery Collection of the National Archaeological Museum (Lisboa). This work was carried out without touching the original artefact through the use of 3D scanning technology, before proceeding with the goldsmith handwork, after the lost wax casting being made.
