A stained-glass roundel (1390) at The Met Cloisters lends its celestial motifs to this elegant necklace. The original was crafted in a large court workshop in Niederösterreich, Austria, and installed in the castle at Ebreichsdorf near the Hungarian border. Having withstood attacks by the Mongols in the 13th century, followed by the Turks in the 17th century, the castle never returned to its medieval splendor; with the exception of a surviving panel in Vienna, this roundel and a series of narrative panels depicting the life of Christ, formerly displayed in the Gothic Chapel at Ebreichsdorf and now at The Cloisters, are all that remain of the structure’s magnificent glasswork.
