Gilt bronze, C.500-800AD. Just over size 5 ½ with 1.4mm width band flaring to the shoulders. Rectangular bezel with six dot in circle motifs. That decoration is associated with the Saxon culture, in northern Europe and migrating to England at the time. The style and proportions emulate Roman rings, though Rome never conquered as far north as the Saxons. Professionally refurbished for modern wear with a 24karat gold surface. Gift boxed with certificate of authenticity.
