Description: | Incomplete copper alloy nail cleaner. The nail cleaner is leaf shaped and tapers gently from the shoulders to points. The suspension loop is missing. The face of the nail cleaner is decorated with a number of different designs. The perimeter of the cleaner is decorated with a row of punched chevrons, with the chevron arches facing outwards and the two points of each chevron thus facing inwards. Each chevron is circa 1.3mm in length and 1mm in width. There are four punched dot-in-double ring motifs running vertically down the face; three are of the same diameter and style, however the second from top is larger and contains a cross with central pellet and bulbous arms within a double ring. The smaller rings have a diameter of circa 3.1mm, whilst the larger is 9mm in diameter. There are four even smaller pellet-in-ring motifs surrounding the largest ring, forming four 'corners' around it. These rings have a diameter of circa 1mm. Two more of these smallest rings flank the top of the prong groove. The reverse is plain.
