About this episode
The 24-carat gold pendant features the Tudor rose and a pomegranate bush, the personal symbol of Katherine of Aragon.这枚 24K 纯金吊坠上刻有都铎玫瑰和石榴树丛纹饰,后者是 “阿拉贡的凯瑟琳” 的个人象征。Discovered by a metal detectorist in a field in Warwickshire in 2019, it's believed to be the only surviving piece of jewellery directly linked to Henry VIII's 24-year marriage to Katherine.这枚吊坠由一位金属探测寻宝爱好者在 2019 年于沃里克郡的一处田野中发现,它被认为是唯一一件存世的、与亨利八世和凯瑟琳 24 年的婚姻有直接关联的珠宝。The British Museum raised hundreds of thousands of pounds to help pay for the piece through a public appeal. Its director, Nicholas Cullinan, says the response shows how strongly people value Britain's past.大英博物馆通过公众募捐筹集了上百万英镑以支付购买这件珠宝。大英博物馆馆长尼古拉斯·库里南表示,公众的响应显示出人们对英国历史的高度珍视。The pendant will join the museum's collection later this year and is expected to tour the UK.这枚吊坠将在今年晚些时候加入到大英博物馆的藏品行列中,并计划在英国各地巡回展出。
