Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Gateshead
Workflow stage: Published
A medieval gold finger-ring, with a four-cusped setting containing a transparent imitation 'gemstone'. The hoop is stirrup-shaped and the shoulders are each engraved with panels of foliate decoration. The hoop is slender and slightly bent. The ring probably dates to the 14th or 15th century.

Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Gateshead
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast lead weight of the late Medieval or Post-Medieval period.
The weight is trapezoidal in profile, with 7 facetted faces from base to top. The top has a solid glob of lead that appears to be an incomplete suspension loop. The glob has a narrow rectangular perforation through it, but there is little space for a hook or another form of suspension. The body of the weight also has circular holes drilled into it.
The base is rather elaborate, with 7 drop-shaped wedges radiating from the centre.
