Description: | A complete silver thimble made from sheet soldered along the edges. The thimble is decorated with waffle-shaped indentations with a plain band at the rim and plain disc at the centre of the top, there is also a pattern consisting of two cross-shapes alternating with two quatrefoil flowers on the sides which is also left plain apart from evenly spaced circular dots. The plain rim is engraved with the inscription 'keepe promise ET,' the former two words are in lower case and the initials, presumably of an individual in upper case. There is also a maker's mark of a neat RI in capital letters on the inside.
