Description
Roman bracelet with a sliding clasp. It is made of a bronze thread with a round cross-section, with the ends folded on itself to lock it, which allowed it to be adjusted to the bearer's wrist, probably a woman's. A large number of personal adornments and jewellery, in gold, silver and glass paste, have been recovered in the villa of Vilauba, as well as much more usual objects of bronze. Several earrings, fibulae, buttons, rings and a necklace stand out in addition to bracelets.
