Record ID: IOW-81E74A
Object type: SPINDLE WHORL
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete possible spindle whorl of Unknown date (c. AD 43-c. 1800).

This spindle whorl is smooth, off white and buff in places.

Record ID: IOW-4B9CF7
Object type: FIGURINE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Published
A cast metal fragment of a possible figurine of Unknown date. Length: 56.0mm; width: 27.0mm and 11.5mm thick. Weight: 26.02g. A decorative fitting, in the form of a dissociated wing. The metal is highly corroded and is unlikely to have a significant content of either silver or gold. In addition, the fragment is undateable and may have formed part of an item of garden furniture or statuary. Given the undiagnostic nature of this find and the uncertain constituents of the alloy, it does not qualify for consideration under the stipulation of the Treasure Act 1996.

An incomplete cast copper alloy Early Roman Colchester derivative brooch (AD 50 – AD 80). Overall length 22.8mm, width 33.0 and maximum thickness 3.9mm. Weight 5.99g.
The lower part of the bow and catch-plate are missing due to an old break. The spring mechanism (including the chord) and pin are also missing.
The wings which are 33.0mm in width are semi-cylindrical (concave at the rear). The wings are abnormally long for a Colchester brooch and might suggest a link to some of the South-western brooches which have long wings. At the end of each wing, at the front, there is a sim…

An incomplete cast copper alloy and enamelled lozenge-shaped plate brooch of Roman date (c. AD 100 – c. AD 200). Length: 27.3mm; width: 20.4mm and 6.1mm thick. Weight: 2.61g.
The pin is missing. Part of the plate, part of one of the pin lugs and part of the catch-plate are missing due to old breaks.
The edges are up-turned to form a distinct narrow rim which appears to have been punched to form denticulated decoration. However, this is barely visible and unclear due to corrosion. The centre of the brooch is raised in one step and contains a lozenge-shaped field with enamelled m…

‘There exist a number of lead or pewter pieces which have in the past been described as patterns or tokens. It is more probable however that they were political medalets or counters, as some would appear to relate to Mary, Queen of Scots, and the workmanship on most is rather crude. They are normally found in London, and were struck about 1574 (North 1991: 140).
