Description: | A fragment of a copper-alloy bracelet of 3rd or 4th century date. For similar examples, see Allason-Jones and Miket, 1984, p. 129.
The terminal takes the form of a perforated sub-oval plate. A decorative moulded collar lies immediately adjacent to the terminal. The outer face of the bracelet has four panels of two or three horizontal grooves. These panels are interspersed by three plain bands, two with convex surfaces, one with flat surfaces. The area adjacent to the break is of square section and slightly bent. The decoration on this section consists of panels of herringbone incisions separated by incised horizontal borders.
The object measures 41.1mm long, 7.1mm wide and 2.8mm thick; it weighs 1.89g. | 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: | 200
