Early Medieval gold pendant set with a red stone, presumably a garnet. The pendant is in the form of a stepped triangle, with three 'steps' on each side and a horizontal base. It has a rectangular cross section with a slightly concave reverse. The pendant is intact but part of the gold frame has been torn and is now bent away from the stone setting. This has exposed a section of embossed gold foil which sits beneath the stone. The suspension loop is fluted and folded to make a loop. The frame is also 'fluted', formed of three linear ridges and two indentations. This fluting is fla…

A thin gold ring shaped object, with ornate spiralled design and oval lilac stone setting. Dark areas indicate that this object could consist of gold leaf over another material. This may not have originally been a finger-ring; the material is extremely thin, too thin to conceivably be used to construct a finger-ring. It is indicated that the item has been straightened and glued, making identification difficult. The object is not in its original state and so identification in the current condition could be misleading and therefore there is no evidence to date to pre 1711.
