Abstract
  • The recent archaeological excavations at Qalat Rabah (Calatrava la Vieja, Spain) brought to light a number of gilded pieces - harness and personal ornaments - of very high aesthetic and technological quality; these artefacts are being studied from different points of view, as they unquestionably represented the state of the art in the Mediterranean Europe of the Middle Ages. Selected pieces were investigated, mainly by scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDXA), with regard to the corrosion structures and the gilding technique. The identification of the corrosion products and their distribution provided information for the conservation treatments, whereas the simultaneous presence of gold leaf and mercury lead to hypothesize a hybrid, little documented, gilding technique in which mercury provides the adhesion of the gold leaf to the substrate.

  • Las últimas excavaciones en Qalat Rabah (Calatrava La Vieja, España) han sacado a la luz numerosas piezas sobredoradas (adornos personales, apliques para muebles e indumentaria, etc.) de gran calidad estética y tecnológica. Estos objetos ha sido estudiados desde distintos puntos de vista ya que constituyen una incuestionable representación del arte en el Mediterráneo europeo en la Edad Media. Se han seleccionado algunos de ellos para, mediante microscopio electrónico de barrido (SEM-EDXA), realizar un estudio de la estructura de la corrosión y la posible técnica utilizada en el dorado. La identificación de los productos de corrosión y su distribución aporta una valiosa información para la conservación y la restauración de piezas de estas características. Por otra parte la presencia simultánea de oro y mercurio apoya una tesis híbrida, muy poco documentada, la adhesión mediante mercurio de una lámina de oro al sustrato de cobre. (literal)
