Description: | Late-Medieval/Early Post-Medieval silver-gilt finger ring, probably dating to the 15th/early 16th century. Rings of this style are usually iconographic (for example see Treasure case 2005 T175), often containing images of the saints. However, the bezel of this one is divided into three sections, the central containing a heart and the ones on either side containing a circle divided by a cross, all surrounded by a crude foliate pattern. The shoulders of the ring are moulded to form a flower, whilst the rear of the ring is decorated with an alternating pattern of diagonal ridges and lines of pellets. The ring is silver-gilt.
