Cast copper alloy openwork mount, this consists of a central diagonal band with expanded ends, in the expanded ends are four pellets. The narrow midsection is flanked by two roundels, these also have two pellets in the centre. These are all held in place by a linear band, above and below, which has a circular cross-section. Both ends of the bands are truncated, as a result it is impossible to surmise the original shape or function of the artefact.
