The larger arm band is comprised of a single curved bronze bar, with flat and smoothed terminals, each showcasing shallow incised crosshatch designs with a textured feel. Each cuff has a wonderful layer of green patina across all surfaces, and both are beautiful examples of ancient Thai craftsmanship! Size of largest (arm band): 4" Diameter (10.2 cm).
