Re: apron discs with decoration - Marcus Mummius - 05-02-2007 Indeed, Gaius, you need not make up a story like that to justify you wearing such a belt in that period. It's absolutely authentic. In the article about the pre Flavian belt I saw type A plates dated to the Flavian period, whereas a lot of well known type B plates are dated to the Claudian period. So the least you can say is that the two beltstyles overlapped chronologicaly. Vale, Re: apron discs with decoration - Tarbicus - 05-02-2007 I've yet to do it, but apparently cold enamel (black) can be a good imitation of niello if steamed during its curing process, by turning it to a matt finish. There's a thread on the subject where I linked to a PDF on working with cold enamel. Peronis started the thread, IIRC. Added: The thread - http://www.romanarmy.com/rat/viewtopic. ... 015#123015 |
