A copper-alloy 'stirrup'-shaped finger-ring dating to the twelfth to fifteenth century AD. The hoop is slender and D-shaped in section and is broken. It rises to a pronounced bezel with an oval setting for a stone. The setting is empty, except for the remains of adhesive or solder.

It appears that this form was popular from the mid-12th to the mid-15th century. However, they were most popular during…
