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.

Copper alloy bracelet, as kindly suggested by the finder. A broad rectangular strip of copper alloy with straight ends, curled into a penannular form and subsequently further wound into a loose coil. The finder kindly notes a single ring and dot of diameter 4mm towards either end; these marks are very worn and their presence may imply the loss of others to heavy wear. There is also intermittent evidence for a bordering series of tiny stamped pits, which may also have formed part of a more coherent decorative scheme. The band is slightly concavo-convex, which would be apt to use as a ba…
