Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy finger ring, most likely to be Roman in date. The shoulders and the bezel of the ring survive, and the hoop is missing due to an old break. The shoulders measure 16mm in length and 10mm in width, they are flaring to form a lozenges shape and have border grooves running along either edge. The bezel is oval in shape measuring 10mm by 9mm in size. It is raised and hollow and would have original held a setting, which is now missing. This finger ring is similar to a more complete example from Hatcheston (Blagg, Plouviez, Tester, 2005, 115, fig 75, no 69). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
