Incomplete medieval gold finger ring. An oval collet forms a bezel, the upper half with sloping, concave sides, the lower half with flat sloping sides. The narrow, broken and slightly distorted hoop is oval-sectioned, expanding slightly at the shoulders to small triangular bosses at the join between the hoop and the bezel. There is no trace of engraved decoration and the rear of the hoop is missing.
When found, the collet contained a red or pink stone, presumebaly glass, which had sunk into the collect. The stone was accidentally damaged and the fragments lost during examination.
Bezel 11 x 9mm. Weight 1.3g.
Circa 13th century. See for example Oman (1974, pl.14a).
