Description: | Gold ring formed of a thin flat band, with plain exterior, the interior inscribed: I will be kind if love I finde, followed by a stamped maker's mark DC (?) and the initials BSS. The central S is placed slightly above, suggesting that these may be the initials of a married couple, the upper S for the surname. The maker's mark is not identifiable in the easily accessible published sources. The lettering is consistent with a 17th century date, but such lettering continued well into the 18th century. Inscription: I will be kind if love I finde BSS | Subjects: | Posy | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
