介绍（中）	这只金耳环是一种名为景泰蓝的技术的一个例子，在这种技术中，图案用贵金属（本例中为黄金）勾勒，并填充其他材料，如绿松石、青金石和朱砂着色的玛瑙在耳环的中心，一个圆圈围绕着一个部分男性形象，在一个有翼的圆盘上方有雕刻的装饰。从腰部以上看，这名男性穿着一件袖子宽大、有圆形装饰的长袍，头戴一顶高帽，蓬松的头发从下面垂下来。他留着长胡子，举起一只手，另一只手放在腰前，手里拿着弓或棍子。圆盘内部有一个新月形，两侧有两个翅膀，顶部向内卷曲。一条梯形的羽毛尾巴从圆盘底部露出。圆圈用三角形装饰七个较小的圆圈，里面有新月，中间用金色菱形隔开。其中六个圆圈包含男性半身像，与耳环中间的半身像相似。这些数字都面向中心人物。耳环底部的圆圈包含两个较小的新月，可能是为了代表开放的花朵。耳环的外缘由三角形组成，边缘有一排莲花。耳环的顶部有一个开口，最初包含一个闩锁，通过该闩锁可以将耳环固定在耳朵上翼盘中的人物经常出现在阿契美尼德艺术中，通常被理解为神阿胡拉·马自达。较小的数字可能代表波斯国王，表示承认和尊重。
介绍（英）	This gold earring is an example of a technique called cloisonné, in which the design is outlined in precious metal – gold in this case – and filled with other materials, such as the turquoise, lapis lazuli and carnelian colored by cinnabar seen here. In the center of the earring a circle encloses a partial male figure with incised decoration above a winged disk. The male figure, shown from around the waist up, wears a robe with flaring sleeves and circular decorations and a tall cap with voluminous hair spilling out from beneath. He has a long beard and he raises one hand while holding the other in front of his waist, where he grasps a bow or staff. The disk has a crescent inside of it, and two wings on either side of it which curl inward at the top. A trapezoidal feathered tail emerges from the bottom of the disk. The enclosing circle is decorated with triangles. Seven smaller circles with crescents inside them, separated by gold rhombuses, surround the central one. Six of these circles contain male half-figures similar to the one in the middle of the earring. These figures all face the central figure. The circle at the bottom of the earring contains two smaller crescents, perhaps meant to represent an open flower blossom. The outer border of the earring is comprised of triangles, and the edge features a row of lotus blossoms. The top of the earring has an opening which originally contained a latch by which the earring would have been attached to the ear. The figure in the winged disk occurs often in Achaemenid art, and is usually understood to be the god Ahura Mazda. The smaller figures probably represent the Persian king, making a gesture of acknowledgment and respect.
