Description: | Iron age copper alloy terret ring, 55mm in diameter and 6mm thick. The object is in good condition, although small parts of it are missing, and it has a dark brown patina. The ring is not a true circle, being slightly flattened on its upper side. It has a circular section except for the area that held the strap which has a rectangular section and is 24mm long and 4mm thick with a width of 9mm. This is bordered by a raised circular collar, 10mm in diameter at each side. The terret is decorated with the remains of three lentoid? shaped knops, one opposite the strap accomodation and one at 90o on each side. All three of these have been damaged although one is filled with a beige laminated material, which may have been enamelling? | 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: | -50
