Description: | Medieval incomplete gold finger-ring, most of hoop missing. Circular bezel (diameter 9.5mm) surmounted by an empty collet that tapers upwards to 6mm diameter. Four tiny, sub-conical, empty collets (basal diameter 3mm), including two on the shoulders, are evenly arranged around the bezel. The hoop, of flat D-section, 2mm wide at the shoulders and its narrowest 1.5mm wide, is decorated with a lattice of deeply engraved lines, the resultant lozenges being filled with punched dots while the lateral triangles contain only one dot each. Weight 1.27g. Gold rings with satellite collets are characteristic of the 13th century. (Oman 1974, cat. nos. 16C, 16D, 18G (F) and 19A)
