A incomplete copper alloy bracelet. Both terminals are broken and incomplete. At one end the bracelet has a flattened, rectangular cross section and is slightly expanded. It is likely that this terminal continued into a pierced tab through which the missing hooked terminal would have passed to secure the bracelet in use. From this expanded terminal the band of the bracelet tapers into an rounded cross section. It tapers further to the break at the other missing terminal where it was probably hooked originally. The surface of the bracelet is worn, but there are occasional traces of mou…
