Gold earring
The simple earring consists of a single round forged gold wire. One end of the wire forms the hook of the locking device, which merges into the bracket. The shackle continues over the back of a round decorative disc, bending at the other end to form a large eyelet into which the hook is inserted. Starting from here, the wire forms the decorative disk in the form of a spiral with four turns. The second end of the wire is then twisted around the bracket for attachment. This is bent by 90° from the hook to the twisted end of the wire and must originally have been completely behind the spiral.
