[nb-NO]Description[nb-NO]
Gold leaf bracelet; the gold is wrapped around a core of what appears to be plaster, described by Petrie as "white paste". There are two openings: one is a double hook, which was possibly intended as a link or decoration; the other is by means of a pin (now missing) which would have held a loop within the other end of the tube. Probably intended to be worn on the upper arm.
