Description: | A medieval gold circular finger-ring, of small diameter, consisting of a very worn hoop. The hoop is decorated with a symmetrical design in the bezel area. The square central hole, between two engraved vertical lines, the two further panels both contained a punched dot, a hole and a further engraved vertical line. Each of the holes suggests a different diameter and these may have been designed for glass or gem settings, but there is no evidence that these were ever inserted. The finger-ring dates to the 14th century. Diameter of hoop 18mm.
