Copper-alloy arm ring

Bronze bracelet, diam. 7.5cm (slips easily over the hand onto the forearm). Cast in one piece, basically circular in section, but with flattened inner edge in the three sectors where the ring is decorated by opposed pairs of animal or serpent heads. These heads are well, if simply, moulded, triple grooves on neck, peaked mouldings separating off the head from the triangular straight edged-jaws, confronted edge to edge.Parallels: Silver example over 8 cm in diam. from Faversham (now in British Museum). Two sets of paired heads.
