This is a circular earring, one of the surfaces of which is almost entirely smoothened. The ring is hollow and bevel-edged. On the exterior surface, the bevelled angle bears a delicate twisted rope moulding decoration applied on the preserved contour. The rope moulding decoration is in the shape of a thin braid 1 mm wide. The earring could have been suspended by means of the central opening, approximately 7 mms in diameter.

Il s'agit d'une boucle d'oreille, de forme circulaire, dont une des faces est presque complètement lissée. La boucle est creuse, et travaillée en biseau. Sur la surface externe, l'angle biseauté présente une fine torsade appliquée sur tout le pourtour conservé. Cette torsade prend la forme générale d'une fine tresse d'environ 1 mm de largeur. La suspension de la boucle d'oreille devait se faire directement par l'ouverture centrale d'environ 7 mm de diamètre.
