Record ID: SF-0F6BE5
Object type: INTAGLIO
Broad period: MODERN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An intaglio of probably Modern date. It is made from pale green glass and is oval in shape, with an inscribed device. It is uncertain what the device is intended to depict.

The object measures 11.11mm in length, 8.17mm in width, 1.58mm in thickness and weighs 0.24g.

Three iron rings of probably Post-Medieval to Modern date, with a combined total weight of 16.39g.
