Description: | A cast silver oval-faced seal matrix with a hexagonal waisted handle terminating in a double collar, suspension loop missing above. In generally reasonable condition with device clear, but damaged along the right-hand edge.
Device: (Described from impression). A skeleton standing and facing the viewer. In its left hand a timer, in its right a long item which has been largely lost with the disintegration of the edge, probably an arrow, fletchings uppermost. A flowering plant or bush grows between the skeleton's feet, reaching its hip height and spreading out behind.
Measurements: Approximate original dimensions 12 mm x 14 mm, 9 mm from face to base of collar. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Szymanski, Irene | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
