نقش و نگارهای تزئینی
Although there was a set, fairly limited repertoire of decorative motifs in all Egyptian jewelry, the artist-craftsmen created a wide variety of compositions, based mainly on strict symmetry or, in the jewelry made of beads, on the rhythmic repetition of shapes and colours.
The disks reveal the rich variety of decorative motifs used by the Mycenaeans: round, rectangular, ribbon-shaped-including combinations of volutes, flowers, stylized polyps and butterflies, rosettes, birds, and sphinxes.
A style both sumptuous and full of plastic vigour was created, in which meticulous arrangement of the decorative motifs resulted in the contrast and harmony, clarity and unity, rhythms and cadences that make some of these jewels complete works of art.
New decorative motifs of a magical nature began to appear, such as the half-moon and the wheel with four spokes.
Jewelry forms, too, were influenced by decorative motifs based on Greek and Roman models, and the cameo became fashionable once again.
