Description: A complete gold mourning type finger ring dating to the Post-Medieval period, exactly 1709. The hoop is 'D' shaped in section and broadly oval in plan (squashed somewhat in post-depositional damage), plain on its outer face except for the deeply engraved depiction of a human skull at its apex. Traces of black enamel preserved in the recesses of the latter infer that at one point it was once fully decorated in this manner. The interior of the hoop is engraved with an inscription relating to the deceased individual the ring was made to represent in memoriam, reading as foll…

Description: A complete bust somewhat distorted gold and enamel finger ring dating to the Post-Medieval period, a variant on the 'memento mori' types. The ring demonstrates a circular bezel engraved with the design of a facing grinning skull. Around the skull, four sub-rectangular recessed panels forming a ring around it display the following Latin inscription (interestingly, rendered by moulding rather than engraving): RES/PIC/E FI/NEM (RESPICE FINEM). This translates broadly as 'think to the end', an allusion to the inevitability of death. Each side of the bezel, the recessed should…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete gold object of uncertain date, but possibly Iron Age or early Roman. It consists a length of thick gold wire (now rather twisted and distorted) of circular section with a knopped globular terminal at each end.

The original length/diameter of the object is uncertain due to heavy distortion but has been estimated at 130mm; the terminals are c. 2.66mm in diameter and the midpoint of the wire 1.42mm thick. It weighs 3.96g. Although this object is difficult to par…
