Description: | A copper alloy cylinder made from a thin sheet of metal that has been bent to make the ends join. There is a raised strip down the length of the cylinder where the two ends were originally affixed, though they are now apart. Decorated with panels containing a stamped foliate design, bordered with rows of stamped or punched rings and dots. One edge is ragged and appears to have been torn, the other is edged with a series of rounded lobes, which are decorated with two lines coming to a point above a raised band. It was in a flattened condition when found. Original use is unknown, but it may be a decorative collar for a large candle or decoration from a staff. | 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 | Creator: | Jeff Spencer | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
