Description: | A copper alloy finger ring of Post Medieval date, probably 17th or 18th century. It has a soldered seam and has been cut from a longer length of decorated metal, as the design does not join neatly. The inside is plain, but the outer face has plain borders and a recessed central panel decorated with nine lozenges (including the two incomplete lozenges next to the seam). Each lozenge is divided with a saltire cross into four parts with a punched dot in each part. Between the lozenges the field is filled with raised lines. The patina is not fully formed, so a fairly late date is suggested.
