The Metropolitan Museum of Art

One of a pair of bangles, likely made of bronze or copper, with a green patina. The bangle has a circular shape and is thick. It features small spherical protrusions around its circumference. The bangle on the left lies on a white surface, while the other rests on a short, square metal stand. Textile remnants are still attached to the bangle on the left. The background is a plain white surface with shadows cast by the bangles. The piece is by an unknown artist titled "One of a Pair of Pellet Bangles with Textile Remnants".
