Silver signet ring with an octagonal bezel flanked by tapering triangular shoulders in plan and a D-shaped hoop in profile. The bezel is incised with lower-case black-letter script, the initials 'h h' in retrograde, within a recessed heart surmounted by a crown and with a fleur de lis to each side and all within a border of rhomboidal punches which create a twisted rope effect when impressed.

Object type: MOUNT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete cast copper-alloy Medieval bar mount with pendant loop, dating to AD 1300-1500. It consists of an oval ring with a D-shaped cross-section, which has an off-set and narrowed bar, around which a copper-alloy sheet is wrapped, forming the bar mount. The bar-mount is rectangular in plan and has a recessed fold; a copper-alloy rivet passing through the sheet secured the attachment to the support. The bar-mount is probably incomplete, it might have another rivet on its attachment edge. Cf. Egan-Pritchard (1991, p. 221, fig. 138, no. 1191) Length: 19.72 mm Width of the…

Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete knapped and polished flint axehead dating to the Neolithic period, c. 4000-2500 BC. The butt and midsection are missing in an oblique patinated break, with only the lower body and cutting edge preserved extant. Deep negative flaking on both sides of the axe close to this break suggests this may have resulted from use. Demonstrating a rectangular section and slightly expanding flat sides, the axe has been manufactured on a piece of greyish flint which has now in places patinated to an off-white mottled with blue. Considerable iron staining on both faces marks the location…

An incomplete cast copper-alloy Early Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) box catch, dating to AD 600-700.

Object type: STRAP END

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete cast copper-alloy strap end of Thomas' class E, dating c. 900-1100. Originally the strap end would have been tongue shaped in plan, though now the terminal end is missing in old damage and it subsequently is rectangular in form.

While its reverse is plain, the upper surf…
