An analysis of the highly significant corpus of metalwork produced in Ireland between the 7th and 10th centuries. Ryan re-examines old finds and incorporates new discoveries and research. Jewellery, hoards, chalices, reliquaries, household and decorative fittings are all examined in detail with accompanying illustrations.
This book showcases the excellence of early-medieval Irish fine metalwork, a pinnacle in European decorative arts. Masterpieces of goldsmith's art, both personal ornaments and items for religious use, from the 7th to the 10th centuries, are featured. Recent discoveries and international exhibitions have enriched our understanding of this art form.
