Description: | A large cast copper alloy finger ring. The ring has a bevelled outer edge, which has a triangular section. The inner surface of the ring is flat and smooth, which would suggest that that this ring was suitable for a finger. The ring has a maximum thickness of 8.48mm and a minimum thickness of 4.65mm. The thicker edge of the ring appears to be the front. Other than the shape of the ring, it is undecorated. A number of incised lines are evident on the surface of the ring, but these appear to be random. The edges of the ring are all worn. The ring is in perfect condition. The metal has a smooth and shiny dark brownish-green patina. The surface is unpitted. An exact parallel could not be found. | 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 |
