Record ID: SUR-E43F44
Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment of a copper alloy Roman finger ring, comprising a raised oval bezel, 8.2mm long and 3.3mm high, with a deep setting for a now lost stone or intaglio. The bezel rises from the line of the hoop which has a flat cross section and triangular shoulders which are waisted at the junction to the bezel and which taper into the hoop. The shoulders are decorated with transverse ridges.
Cf. Guiraud's (1989) Type 3 (later 2nd to later 3rd century AD) or Henig's (2007, 13) Type VIII (3rd century AD).

Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment of a copper alloy bracelet, probably of late Roman date, which has been curled around for later re-use as a finger ring. Unusually for such an object, the decorated side, which appears to have two offset parallel rows of ring and dot motifs running along its length, is on the inside of the hoop. The internal diameter of the ring would have been approximately 17mm.

Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete copper alloy finger ring of probable Roman date, with an oval setting (7mm long) in the bezel for a now missing gem or intaglio. The hoop had an internal diameter of c.17.5mm with a plano-convex cross section. The bezel is in the line of the hoop, with tapering shoulders which merge seamlessly with the hoop and are undecorated.
The form is broadly compatible with Guiraud Type 2a and most likely dates to the 1st - early 3rd century AD.

Broad period: ROMAN
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper alloy ring, possibly a finger ring, of uncertain date but possibly Romano British. The ring has been made from a coil of copper alloy which appears to have been worked by hammering into a hoop with an internal diameter of 17.5mm. The section is D-shaped, 2.5mm wide and varies in thickness from around 1.1mm to 2.3mm due to the uneven construction and heavy surface corrosion and loss in places. There is no evident decoration.
