Object type: SEAL MATRIX
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Published
Post-medieval fob seal matrix and chain, probably of late 18th-century date. The fob seal is oval and complete. The rear of the seal frame is domed with a sturdy openwork frame decorated with grapes and leaves and a central piercing to take the fob chain. The intaglio is secured in a frame without grips. The intaglio appears to be made from quartz, probably amethyst since it has a pale purple shine to it. To make the engraving stand out even more, a thin metal foil was inserted between intaglio and frame, which catches the light. At the centre is the carving of a bust of a male figure …

Object type: SCABBARD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Published
Cast copper alloy chape dating from the Late Bronze Age, that is c. 1000-800BC.

Broad period: MODERN
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Published
Small ring made from plaited silver wire. Hand-made. Rings of this type have been examined at the British Museum, where the opinion was tentatively given that they may be 19th century cane ferrules. However, possible parallels include Viking dome-shaped mounts formed of interwoven silver wire, and a ring from the 'scourge' in the ninth-century Trewhiddle hoard.

Object type: PIN
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Published
Head of a copper alloy 8th century Anglo-Saxon pin, probably part of a triple, or double, pin set.

There is a small hole in the side of the head, possibly to link the pin to the centr…
