Description: | Cast gold figurative pendant; depicts a standing female saint, possibly the Virgin Mary; plain flat reverse with a protruding circular attachment or suspension loop; the front depicts a prominent circular halo behind the head, long flowing hair and a gown with folds in the drapery; the L.H. arm is bent at the elbow with the hand touching the hair above, the right hand gathers the gown at the side of the body; the gown extends below the feet in a semi-circular base with a small collar and knop protrusion below; overall the figure is of fairly crude workmanship, an observation that supports and Late Post-Medieval dating. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
