Celtic Torque with a Herakles Knot in the Getty Villa, June 2016
Title: Torque
Artist/Maker: Unknown
Culture: Celtic
Place: Northern Europe (Place created)
Date: late 4th century B.C.

Object Number: 96.AM.261
Dimensions: 15 cm (5 7/8 in.)
Credit Line: Gift of Barbara and Lawrence Fleischman
Alternate Titles: Necklace with a Herakles (Square) Knot (Display Title)
Object Type: Torque
Silver torque is fashioned as two thick strands of twisted wire that meet in the front in a Herakles knot. The thicker twists are augmented by a thinner strand of metal. The twists fade out towards the clasp of the torque, which is fashioned as two knobbed, U-shaped hooks that interlock at the back.
