Abstract:
the paper examines fifth-century AD waffle, ring-and-dot and feather-patterned foils which may derive from the decorative repertoire of late Roman gold and silver working. Current theories regarding the manufacture of cloisonné backing foils are reconsidered in the light of the varied appearance of actual foils and the technological capability that might be expected of an early medieval workshop. Experiments in producing primary models suggest that textiles and thread could be used to impress clay with grids for waffle and ring-and-dot foils. These clay models could have been used on their own or for casting positive or negative dies in copper alloy
