Description

Two gold hoops, each formed from a twisted wire ring that ends in a head with pointed ears, a short snout and a dark round stone set as the eye. Collars of ribbed bands and beaded wire run behind each head, and the pair is shown on a plain grey background, one above the other, with the heads turned in opposite directions.
