A Post Medieval copper alloy pendant, possibly a watch winder dating from AD 1800 - 1900. It is in the form of a winged heart with a small circular sectioned projection from the top of the heart, and a larger rounded projection terminating in a knop at the other end. This larger extension is pierced by a circular hole forming a tube. It is also possible that this pendant is from a piece of jewellery. It is 18mm long, 10mm wide and 4.3mm thick. It weighs 1.28gm.
