Post medieval gold button? 13mm in diameter and 0.25mm thick. The object is circular with a raised 'twisted rope' border 1.5mm wide. The cente is completly plain and the reverse has a central loop 4mm in diameter. The object looks like a button but gold is an unlikely material? another possibility is that it is part of a pair of cufflinks and perhaps something was mounted into it?

The ring is in the form of two rings put together, a design echoed by the inscription inside, which reads: + LIVE AND LOVE TOGETHER.

The exterior is decorated with a repeat scroll pattern which is picked out in pale blue and black/dark blue enamel. Th…

Description: Post medieval gold finger ring, 19mm diameter and 4.5mm wide and weighing 1.96grams. The ring is decorated on the outer surface with a frieze showing a fox (?) being chased by a hound. This is flanked by scrolls and two horned devils. The circle is completed by a decorative sub rectangular motif. The internal surface of the ring is inscribed with IN TIME MAY I. Discussion: The inscription is not recorded by Joan Evans but the use of capital letters and the fine renaissance style decoration suggests a date in the 16th or early 17th century.
