This bangle of buffalo horn, silver, copper and resin was made by the Scottish artist Paul Godfrey in 1981.
The black oval bangle was carved from buffalo horn. It is decorated with open cubes of inlaid silver and copper on the narrow ends, and a design in silver and striped blue resin.
During the 1980s the Scottish Development Agency purchased a number of hand-crafted items for its Scottish Crafts Collection. The aim of the collection was to inform the public of craft production in Scotland through touring exhibitions and education programmes. When the Scottish Craft Council was wound up, the collection was transferred to the National Museums of Scotland.
