Description: | a complete lead ampulla or holy water flask, of circa 15th century date. It is pouch-shaped, measuring 53.36mm in length and 25.35mm wide, with two rounded suspension loops one on either side at the waist. The front face is decorated with a lily, longitudinally down the centre, and an initial R within a circle on the belly of the flask. The letter R is associated with Walsingham, and may stand for 'Richelde' ( Michiner 1986). The reverse is decorated with a scallop shell design. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Carr, Jane - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
