Full Description
An enamelled bead, probably from a beaded torc, exact findspot unknown. It is a D-sectioned ring, the exterior shaped to for two faces either side of a central circumferential decorated ridge. Its slightly tapering section suggests use in a beaded torc. Red enamel partially survives on the faces in two areas, but the pattern cannot be discerned. It measures 18 mm by 6.5 - 8.5 mm.
