Ivory & wood jewelry box
This box was made in Byzantine Egypt in the 4th-6th centuries. The item is 34.3 x 35.6 x 30.5 cm and is made of ivory (bone), wood and wax. Two different carving types are used. The first type is figures in raised relief, which was used on the figures on the lid. 
The second is deep outlines filled with coloured wax, such as the dancers and fawns.
The coloured dancers appear to be dancing with a tambour on the lid- 
I am happy to be corrected if anyone knows the correct terms for the instrument! The box is currently at the Walters Art Museum.
Dancers on clothing
This is an ornamental shoulder band, made in Byzantine Egypt, in the first half of the 7th century. It is a linen base with wool tapestry weaving. It is 5.45 cm high and 60.65 cm wide, using indigo and kermes dyes. Currently in the Cleveland Museum of Art.
Sorry, this is the largest picture I could find. It is two naked dancers, woven in silk. Thought to have been made in the Ummayad or Abbasid period of the 8th century, it decorated a tunic. The dimensions are 15.5cm x 14cm, the fabric is a weft-faced plain weave with inner warps. The dancers are holding pomegranates and branches. From the AMICA Library.
Both of these textiles are from Egypt.
Constantine IX Monomachos’ crown
This is the crown of Constantine IX Monomachos. It is gold with cloisonné enamel. Made in the 11th century, it features Constantine with his second wife Zoe and her sister Theodora. They also feature two dancers on either sides of the women.
The crown can be found at the Hungarian National Museum, although the site is not search-able. The University of Puget Sound Art Dept has a picture of the crown that can be zoomed in on. There is a similar item in the Victoria & Albert Museum.
Height: 10.6 cm, Width: 5 cm and Depth: 0.2 cm. Mid 11th century.
