Description from the seller
Attention: due to customs regulations we can only ship inside the European Union. Please ensure you have a valid EU shipping address before placing a bid.
Very impressive ancient Celtic heavy and solid bronze bangle / bracelet, made from a single rod of bronze. The tapering ends are guided towards each other and partly overlapping.
This impressive artefact could be used as a status symbol or currency and is a remarkable example of the craftsmanship and design of this era.
Outside diameter: ± 78,5 mm
Weight: ± 290 g
Condition: good and solid condition with appealing patina. Signs of wear consistent with age and use. See images.
Certificate of Authenticity (PDF) is available upon request.
These heavy bronze bracelets reflect the taste for heavy jewellery pieces of the Bronze Age people in Europe at this date. They are made of solid bronze, silver and gold and were statement pieces about the wealth of the owner. Often they were buried with the owner, or buried with other valuable items for safekeeping.
