*A.T. 0020. Stucco relief fr., one of many, from border of a large halo or haloes, cf. Anc. Khotan, Pl. XVIII, c. On pieces that can safely be attributed to common original there appear three distinct decorative elements : (a) foliate border I" wide by *" high, consisting of continuous frond with closely set and deeply ribbed pointed leaves ; (b) circular medallions, diam. 2f, with double ring edge, inner band of separate leaf or flame motif, and central five-petalled flower; these were set close to border (A.T. iii. 0053) (c) conventional fleur-de-lis with double binding at neck and wavy stalk increasing in width and ending in two rounded lobes (A.T. ii. 007, iii. 0037); total length 4f"; relief on one plane. These were set between the medallions, flower close to border (A.T. 0068), stalk at right-angles to it. Whole originally in crude clay which has been accidentally burned ; one or two pieces show signs of vitrifaction. Clay well levigated, and whole surface covered with very thin limewash or slip ; remains of gilding appear on one of the fleur-de-lis stalks ; otherwise colours have perished together with most of slip. The same mould was generally employed for all the ornaments of each type ;
