A pair of basket earrings, similar to those in the present lot, was in the an assemblage of gold found in a small pottery jar in Tiberias in the late 20th century. It also included nine Fatimid gold dinars, the latest of which was dated to 1063 AD, suggesting the latest date by which the earrings could have been made.
