Title |
4th century gold Roman filigree finger ring |
||
Description |
English: Complete but damaged and distorted, late 4th century Roman gold filigree finger ring. The hoop and shoulders are formed from beaded and twisted wires on a narrow backing plate. The shoulders are decorated with spirals with small gold globules at their centres and clusters between. There are six spirals on one shoulder (in two vertical rows of three) and five on the other (in two vertical rows, one of three and the other of two, presumably missing the third spiral). A collar in the form of a twisted rope design surrounds the round bezel setting. The bezel setting contains a round, domed green glass fitting, badly cracked. The ring has an internal diameter of 200mm by 4mm (distorted) and weighs 4.35g. A similar example can be seen in Johns and Potter, 1983, The Thetford Treasure: Roman Jewellery and silver. |
