Title
Base-metal finger ring 2007T230
Description
English: A gold "Twisted Cord" finger ring with a knot at the bezel.

This ring is a band formed of twisted cords, which interlock at the bezel to form a simple knot. There is evidence of where the metal has been soldered at the shoulders. Upon investigation by three curators, it appears to be made of either low quality gold (i.e. 9-carat) or gold-plated metal alloy. The owner could take it to a jeweller for testing, if desired.
