Annular ear-ring with diamond cross-section.

Title
Annular ear-ring with diamond cross-section.
Description
English: This object was originally identified by Alan West as a Bronze Age ear-ring, and described as an annular ear-ring with diamond cross-section, chevron pattern incised on outer faces.

Re-examination of the photograph now suggests that the ring is either penannular or broken, and Neil Wilkin (British Museum) has advised that it is unlikely to be an ear-ring. The dating as Bronze Age is uncertain.
Depicted place (County of findspot) Hampshire
