Wait'll I collect my pounds of flesh for this meaty little question.
I have hundreds of books and articles on metalwork.
Not too many of them are easily pulled out of computer files
though. As some of the stuff is in Swedish / Danish / German
it's not too easily found. You're mostly getting what is listed
at the moment sans some very early casting material and by and
large does not include really later material like Pilgrims Tokens.
Hey, Ingvild, I got Merovingian Garnet Jewellery by Birgit
Arrhenius last week, 1985. This is more a typological / analytical
thing than straight pictures. Covered provenance of garnets / putty
types / shop locations - St. Eligius for example. Very technical.

Distributed by Almquist and Wiksell International, Stockholm,
Sweden. Printed in Sweden by Bohuslaningens Boktryckeri AB,
Uddevalla. In English. This volume reports, in English,
on the typology, diffusion and function of Anglo-Scandanavian
clasps of classes A-C of the 3rd to 6th centuries AD.
By the end of the 5th century the range of this type of
dress-fastener runs from southern Jutland to the south of
Arctic Norway in the north, and from Anglian England across
to Finland, Estonia and Karelia in the east. The clasps
allow important new observations to be made on how such
items could be manufactured, distributed, and reproduced
over such long distances, and the changing forms and
find-contexts of these artefacts can be interpreted in
terms of how art and costume reflect the adoption and
symbolisation of group identity. This study leads to a
more refined model of the cultural history of a critical
period in the emergence of the early Medieval / late Iron
Age states and kingdoms of Scandinavia and England.
