A gold, ribbed jewelry clasp tapers from a flared top toward a small, circular ring at the base. Its narrow body features two parallel rows of granulation, with tiny, raised spheres running vertically down the center. These beaded lines are flanked by smooth, outward-curving ridges. The bright metal's polished surface contrasts with the textured details, which terminate in a single suspension loop at the bottom.
