Description: | Copper-alloy finger-ring 20mm in external lateral diameter, the hoop formed of a rounded rod 2mm in depth and thickness opposite the bezel, expanding very slightly to 2.2mm at each side. At this point the outer surface is decorated with four diagonal grooves or notches on one side of the ring, and five on the other. The bezel, which is 15mm long and 6.8mm wide, rises from the rods in an ovate form, having three circular recesses for gem settings on its upper surface. Two recesses are aligned towards one long side of the bezel, and the central recess is aligned towards its other edge. Around these setting-places, which are now vacant, the bezel itself is deeply notched to form facetted-angled cuts which open towards the bezel sides. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
