well, photos of Authari wearing the tunica will follow, but at the moment I am working in the University in Cologne, and the zoom of my camera is not good enough for getting photos in Münster :wink:
Aitor: We did the clavi in another style a) to mark that it's not a reproduction but a interpretation and b) to interprete it in a later style, because we are doing 4th century and the pattern of the orbiculi does fit, but the style of the clavi seems to early for that.
For the neckline there are sometimes used card-weaved strips, like on one tunica from Cologne, collection columba. I will see if we have the book in the library, if not I can scan it in Münster.
