Hairnet (hairnet; Unknown Greek (Greek Artist); 220 - 100 BCE; J. Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Villa (Malibu, Los Angeles...; 92.AM.8.1)

Note: A central medallion is joined by flexible chains threaded with gold spool heads to a flat band that enclosed hair arranged in a bun. The medallion bears a bust of Aphrodite, Eros clings to the drapery on her left shoulder. Five bands of filigree enframe the medallion. A pair of chains comprised of gold and garnet spool beads hang from the lower edge of the medallion. The flat gold band that encircled the bun is decorated with filigree. The band is interrupted at mid-point by an ornament in the shape of a "Herakles" knot, once inlaid completely with garnet. At the ends of the band are two loops through which a cord was threaded. From this were suspended eight chains with garnet beads at the tips.
