Baltic and Germanic Ornaments

These brooches, bracelets, rings, and spiral ornaments (12th–14th cc.) show the breadth of medieval Baltic adornment: Semigallian, Latgalian, and Selonian tribal pieces with sturdy brooch forms (27); Germanic Hanseatic brooches and pendants shaped by urban craft traditions (28); Latvian rings and spirals preserving longstanding local styles (29). Their varied forms demonstrate how jewelry articulated identity, status, and regional connections.
