Description
Copper-Alloy Finger-Ring (SWYOR-AA27B1)
A twsited copper-alloy finger-ring found near Scotton, Lincolnshire
This copper-alloy finger-ring seems as if it was made from two strands of twisted wire, but could possibly have been cast. The ropework hoop may have been gilded. Even though similar designs are known from the Viking period, they were also used in other periods as well. Hence, the large date range.
