Glass gemstone. An oval translucent glass stone of biconvex lentoid section, with rhomboid facets on both sides, now smoothed by wear, and with recent chipping along the aris where the sides meet. The tint resembles that of an amethyst, which this is not; the glass is, however, without discernible bubbles, and so may be of fairly recent date. The bifacial working suggests pendant use, presumably framed, and possibly as a necklace or ear ring component. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1750-1850.
