Four doves, argent headdress, 3 silver footrings, vitrine (copper, glass, wood, cloth)

At all times, the dove had a prominent role as message bearer. To this day particularly beautiful and successful doves, bred and tamed in the Orient since the 7th century, receive jewellery in the form of ornamental rings from their breeders, which pierces their wings. Thus decorated, the doves themselves came to adorn architectural facades.
