Want to know more about Sogdian traders and Sasanian art? 'Silk Roads' at the British Museum has some gorgeous stuff. Good effort at stuffing hundreds of years and much complex history (Abbasid Caliphate etc) into one room.

Spectacular gold jewellery have been excavated from burial grounds in Silla dating from the late AD 300s to the first half of the 500s. These artefacts show a close connection between gold and power. The mysterious 'comma-shaped' jade ornament, an ancient form, appears to have been exclusively used by peoples of the Korean peninsula and the Japanese archipelago during this period. Picture of large gold necklace made of hundreds of small leaves of gold with a jade pendant.
