Description: | The armlet is incomplete, therefore only one terminal remains. This terminal has a tapering and rounding end with an oval shaped hole. The armlet is slightly tapered towards this terminal. In cross-section the armlet is rectangular. Decoration on the outer face consists of an incised 'X' by the hole, a long row of vertical grooves which are very worn in the centre of the row, a small circular cell bordered by a ring, a row of circular cells, but pitting has distorted the pattern here. Then the armlet terminates at a broken edge, not a recent break though. The armlet has a well developed green/blue patina, except for a small area of pitting, mentioned previously. The interior surface of the armlet is undecorated. In plan the armlet is now a curved 'J' shape.
