Technical Observations: The patina is green with spots of red; brown burial accretions are present. The surface is rough and obscured by corrosion products. The top of the loop appears to be fully mineralized and fragile. The object was cast from a model made directly in the wax. Several incised lines appear to have been made by cold working.
