Description: | A copper alloy Medieval sewing ring. The rim is thickened with a slight groove just above. The sides are decorated with concentric rings of dots towards the top, which has two further concentric grooved rings. The object is open-ended, classing it as a sewing ring. It has a light green, brown patchy patina and measures 19.5mm x 14mm diameter, weighing 6.46g. Geake (2001) describes these as being fairly common in the 15th century. There is a similar example to this in ??Finds from Medieval York?? (Ottaway and Rogers) fig. 13302. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Ward, Stuart | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
