Description: | The object is possibly a fragment of a bracelet, made from cast copper alloy. The moulded design suggests it maybe of Roman date. Crummy has similar patterned bracelets, however these are slightly thicker than this example. Instead it maybe a decorative fitting, but there are no obvious mounting points.
The object is rectangular in plan, with the two narrow edges being abraded, and maybe broken edges. The decoration is cast on one face. It consists of a series of triangular shaped cells and curved lines. The decoration is worn and abraded to see any other detail.
The reverse of the object is slightly uneven, perhaps due to damage. The surface ofthe object is abraded, and does not have a patina.
It measures 28.4mm long, 9.6mm wide and weighs 1.5g. | 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 | Temporal: | 43
