Hollow Bangle by unknown artist. A circular bangle with a hollow center, made of bronze or brass, exhibiting a greenish-brown patina. The bangle has a split at the bottom, indicating it was once complete but is now broken. The outer surface features intricate etchings and patterns. Two distinct circular motifs are visible on either side of the split at the bottom. The bangle's texture appears rough. The background is plain and light gray.
