A post-medieval fob seal intaglio dating to the Georgian period. The intaglio of made from a piece of oval light yellow glass which has been mounted into a copper alloy casing. This casing is now broken but would have originally been the base of a larger seal matrix, porbably with an elaborate handle common during the 18th century. The intaglio is engraved with a design depicting a winged chrub or Cupid, standing before his bow with a possibly jug or jar in front of both; the inscription around the upper external edge is hard to read but appears to say 'TOVLOVA[...]VCART'.
