Description: | A silver Post Medieval cuff link. In plan the body of the link is octagonal with the edges turned down at right angles to create a hollow back. There is a U-shaped looped-shank attached to the centre of the reverse which has been bent sideways through damage. The front surface is decorated with a stamped flower, possible a rose, within an inner circle. The flower has a circular centre with the petals formed from a series of straight line stamps creating an angular design. Circa 1720 to 1800 AD.Several similar cuff link elements have been recorded on the PAS database including: IOW-FBD221, IOW-4A7C02, SUSS-F91492, LON-BAD6E2, LON-427394 and WILT-323F27. All are taken to be late 17th Century to 18th Century in dating, and are generally considered to be less than 300 years and therefore fall outside the requirements of the Treasure Act 1996. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
