Description: | Fragment of copper alloy Romano-British bracelet. This fragment is rectangular in plan and flat, though originally it would have had a slight curve. It is decorated with three pairs of incised lines that follow the circumference of the bracelet, one pair in the centre and one pair to either side about 1mm in from the edges. Patches of the original surface remain with a mid green patina, with exposed surfaces being lighter green. There is slight encrustation of bright green and dark brown corrosion to the front and back of the fragment. The fragment is 33.62mm long, 19.64mm wide, 1.44mm thick and weighs 4.90g. Bracelets of this style date to the late 3rd and 4th centuries. A similar example, though with different decoration, can be seen in Crummy 1983, figure 40, number 1586.
