Collection trésor de Vix - Ecran 14

The Dame de Vix wore two bronze ankle rings, made from rounded bronze sheets closed with pins. The surface is decorated with unique incised striations arranged perpendicularly, bordered by semicircular and pointed arches. This rare decoration emphasizes the originality of the jewelry.

A hollow, one-piece torque was positioned on her abdomen. With a diameter of 26.8 centimeters, it is unlikely to serve as a belt, and although it might be seen as a necklace, it could be uncomfortable to wear around the neck. Marks on the torque suggest that it had a leather or fabric trim, likely used to secure it to her garment.
