Summary:

Inventory written in two different hands containing a detailed list of the pieces of jewelry donated to the Capitolo del Duomo di Firenze by Pope Leo X. The document is a copy of an excerpt of the will of Leo X, written in 1520. Includes some of the names of the individuals who had originally donated said jewelry to the pope (including members of the Detti, Capponi and Salvetti families), as well as the value of individual jewels. The present document appears to be a fragment of a larger codex, and its leaves were originally numbered 119-122 on the upper recto side.
