Rings

Rings are usually made of metal with stone or other metal designes. They can be worn on the finger or the toe and are usually only distinguished by their placement on the body. They are distinguished from hair and ear rings by their size and lack of coils.

10599B	(none)	(none)	(none)	Tomb Group. (A) Beads of lapis, gold and carnelian. (B) Gold finger ring, hoop of thin metal 5mm, wide with 4 strands of cable pattern. The example shows the process of manufacture. The ring is really a spiral made of flattened gold wire: after the completion of the 1st ring the wire is twisted so that the next 4 hoops show a cable pattern: enough of the wire is left untwisted to form the last hoop & so give another plain edging. The whole was then fused into a single band: in this case the fusing is incomplete & the process is thereby explained. (C) Silver pin with lapis ball head. L. 165mm (D) Cockle shells containing paint.
