A bent fragment of a Roman copper alloy bracelet or armlet, 4mm wide with a flat cross section. The exterior is divided into panels by deeply incised transverse lines, each panel with an oblique line running across it diagonally with a pair of offset notches, one to each side. The angle of the diagonals alternates creating a zig-zag effect. The bracelet appears to have been intentionally cut to respect the edges of the panels at either end and has been bent around, possibly for re-use as a finger ring. There are traces of a white metal coating.

A small fragment of copper alloy two strand twisted cable that possibly comprised part of a Roman bracelet.  The cable comprises two oval strands of copper alloy twisted together.  The thickness of the cable narrows gradually towards one end.  The patina is light green with darker green patches over a dark reddish brown core.  The design is similar to those in Crummy p38 (two strand cables).  However the reddish brown colour of the internal core indicates that this fragment may not be Roman but significantly later.

A section of Roman copper alloy bracelet dating to c AD 200 - 350. What remains is a length of twisted, probably lozenge-shape cross-section single strand which has been neatly twisted to produce a decorative item. There are early breaks at both ends.
