HEAVY CELTIC GOLD BRACELET Ca. 500 - 300 BC A Celtic gold bracelet of an open circular form with conical terminals and flattened ends. The band of the bracelet narrows slightly between the termini and midsection. The Celtic world covered a large part of central, western, and northern ancient Europe. Over time, it shrank to a smaller area in the north and west as it interacted with the Romans and other Germanic peoples. Celtic culture is famous for its curved metalwork, as demonstrated by this beautiful piece of ancient gold jewellery. For similar see: Bompiani's I Celti, (1989), p. 274.
