Object type: BEAD
Broad period: MODERN
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Orange glass bead of uncertain date. The object is sub-circular in plan and has a cylindrical cross-section. The bead has a circular shaft which has an internal diameter of 1.02mm. The glass is simi-translucent and contains darker orange specks in places.
There are beads like this in the Medieval period, but they are much more common in the 19th and 20th century. It is therefore more likely to be modern in date.

County: Buckinghamshire

An in complete, copper alloy, Modern Pipe Tamper/Stopper depicting George and Dragon. The object comprises a small rendition of an upright St. George in plate armour, thrusting his spear into a defeated dragon. The object is the decorative element from a pipe tamper or stopper.
Dr. Susie White (FLO) comments "it is a George and the Dragon pipe stopper (tamper) as illustrated in Leslie 2012, Plate 388 on page 276. These are brass stoppers and are particularly late and probably 19th century, many being produced around the time of the Great Exhibition in 1851."

This phrase was first popularised as the title of a sentimental ballad written by John Howard Payne in 1823; then as a soldiers' song in the American Civil War; and as a text for children's needlework samplers - most of the letters may be rendered in straight lines. It was perhaps the latter source this object draws upon. The concave face may suggest attachment to a mug or bot…
