Silver dish with niello decoration from the Mildenhall treasure
With a diameter of 55.6 cm and weight of 5,023 grammes, this platter is not much smaller than the Great Dish, but its decoration belongs to a more restrained tradition, carried out simply in engraved lines filled with niello, silver sulphide which provides a black contrast to the silver.

Diameter: 55.6 cm
Weight: 5023 g
