The Tang Shipwreck was acquired through the generous donation of the Estate of Khoo Teck Puat.
This is a unique find on the Tang shipwreck, although two fragments which appear to be the ends of another two C-shaped bracelets were also recovered. This bracelet features chased decoration of cloud scrolls, birds and half-blossoms, which are separated by ridges that resemble ropes. Similar C-shaped bracelets with wire wrapped around their ends have been excavated from Tang sites.
