Bronze Etruscan fibula with a bent ring made of flatly beaten wire, passing in a three-turn spiral into a thin pin. Small sheath made of a sheet of metal with a rolled-up lower edge. Condition: green patina, hook plate partially broken off, needle bent, without tip. 6th–5th century BC, Southern Etruria. Height 6.7 cm., A thin, irregularly shaped metallic wire object with a coiled loop at one end and a slightly flattened, thicker section at the opposite end, shown against a pale gray background; the metal appears dark brown to black with areas of rusty orange and lighter brown highlights along its worn surface, and the object forms a triangular outline with a gently arched top segment and a lower straight segment that has a small angular bend.
