Gold bracelet (?) with two animal heads (V. 292)
Description
A closed loop of thick, smooth metal, slightly flattened, with a pinched waist along the lower edge, photographed on a plain grey background. At the top, two animal heads with curled, ridged horns face each other across a small gap, with carved eyes, muzzles and cheek details. Bright highlights run along the tube, and a faint thread-like mark hangs below the heads.
English, translated from the Swedish record
This is probably a gold ornament with two animal heads. No. 292. (V. 292) Guldskatten. Probably found at the Cyprus Museum in Nicosia.
