Object type: PENANNULAR RING
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Warwickshire
Workflow stage: Published
A small Late Bronze Age penannular ring of fat `D' section, the flatter face facing inwards. The object appears to be made by folding sheet gold over a core of another material, probably of copper. Exterior surfaces are relatively well smoothed, but the interior and the terminal faces are less well finished, such that folds and crimps remain clear.
