Silver necklace adorned with garnets, replica of a Mycenaean necklace with gold beads in the shape of an eight-leaf rosette from the Late Helladic ΙΙΒ-ΙΙΙ period (1450-1200 BC). The motif of the eight-leaf rosette, similar to wild roses with few petals, was widely used in Aegean jewellery carrying strong symbolic connotations. Wild roses are present both in Minoan and in Mycenaean art in ritual scenes and signify the name of a month during which specific religious rites took place.
