Workflow stage: Published
Incomplete gold finger-ring, set with a colourless stone. The hoop is narrow and broken into two parts, with about a quarter missing. It is D-shaped in cross-section, flaring from a minimum of 1.2 mm wide and 1.4 mm thick to a maximum of 1.8 mm wide and 2 mm thick at the junction with the bezel. Although this would seem to leave little room for decoration on the shoulders, there is in fact a great deal of complicated scrolly engraving extending around half the hoop and ending with a short longitudinal groove.

Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Description: A gold probable finger ring now distorted, consisting of a slender twisted ribbon of gold with tiny flat-backed snake heads in low relief at the terminals. The rendering of the snake heads is reduced to a pattern of swellings, curves and lines. Discussion: This finger ring is probably of Catherine John's type Bii (Johns, 1997, 36, fig 9), being of penannular form with two confronted snakes head terminals. It is similar in style to over thirty examples from the Snettisham hoard. However, these are all in silver, indeed no published example in gold of type Bii could b…
