Copper-alloy, 9.09 grams, 52.42 mm. 8th-10th century AD. A flat-sectiondc band with panels of geoetric decoration executed in 'rockerwork' whereby the blade is rocked back and forth across the surface to produce a continuous zigzag line. The central panel features a ring-and-dot with four petals radiating from the ring; flanking this are two panels with a central ring-and-dot and short radiating lines in a starburst motif; next are panels with double-line opposed lunate arcs, and the terminal panels share this design extended over a greater length. Bracelets of this form are associated with the eastern Baltic Selonians in the Viking period. Reference: Griciuviene, E. Seliai - The Selonians, Lietuvos nacionalinis muziejus, 2007, p.154-5. Extremely fine condition with a beautiful even light brown patination. Provenance: from an old English collection.
