Record ID: SF3529
Object type: RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Published
Copper-alloy ring, now broken at one point around the circumference. The section is a smooth oval, 3 x 4 mm, and the diameter is c. 24 mm. There is a polished grey-green patina. The break in the ring is L-shaped, and to one side has caused a longitudinal central split. Because of this, it seems possible that the ring was made by hammering rather than casting, and that a line of weakness remains around the centre. The ring looks old, but is not really datable.

Object type: RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Suffolk

Copper-alloy ring, circular and of oval section, 21 mm in diameter, and now rather corroded. At one point on the circumference there is a rectilinear moulding which runs around the whole of the section. The moulding is c. 2 mm thick and measures 4 x 5.5 mm. Around the moulding is some thick, well-preserved white-metal coating or, just possibly, solder. Date and function unknown.

Record ID: SF4965
Object type: RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Very corroded copper-alloy ring, 19 mm in external diameter and 13-15 mm in internal diameter. This is very small for a finger-ring and the ring is also undecorated. The ring is very light, so possibly hollow; but it has an uneven circular cross-section (2.5 to 1 mm diameter) which has not worn through anywhere, so if it is hollow either the void in the centre is very narrow or it was made unevenly. An odd little object of unknown date.

Record ID: SF5407
Object type: RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Incomplete copper-alloy ring. About half survives, in a corroded condition with apparently old breaks. 27 mm in diameter, the cross-section is a rounded 3mm sub-square with an internal and perhaps slight external casting flash. Undatable, but perhaps ancient.

Record ID: SF6184
Object type: RING
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Circular copper-alloy ring, 21 mm in diameter. Rounded in section, 2.5 x 1.5 mm; otherwise featureless, with an even olive green patina. It is comfortable as a finger-ring and could well have been used as such. Dating is difficult as there are so few diagnostic features, but the patina looks of some age.
