Object type: HOOKED TAG
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
CURATOR'S REPORT
Late Anglo-Saxon silver hooked tag.
Description
A hooked tag with a sub-triangular to round headplate, with two lugs. Back and front both plain, but the front scratched just above the hook, perhaps from cleaning as the object is more shiny here. Hook intact.
Discussion
Hooked tags are all-purpose fasteners, used to secure small bags or purses and also clothing. They occur in various forms from the late 8th century onwards, but those with triangular head plate seem to become popular only from the 9th century.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A silver thimble with waffle-shaped indentations but with pattern of linked cables left plain; plain band at part of the rim and plain disc at central point of dome. The thimble is in excellent condition, apart from one scratch running around it just below the dome. Given the regularity and depth of the indentations, the thimble may have been made on a lathe rather than punched by hand. Unmarked. Length approx 2.9 cm. Silver thimbles were used increasingly by the European nobility and gentry during the 17th Century but surviving examples are rare given that thimbles were much used and…

A silver artefact built up of three superimposed squares, forming a stepped pyramid. Approximately 10 mm square. Reverse plain. This artefact is undiagnostic and correspondingly hard to date. Although there are signs that the object is not machine-made, there is no reason to think that it predates 1706 and it therefore falls outside the provisions of the Treasure Act 1996 (Dr Dora Thornton, Curator of Renaissance Collections, The British Museum).

A crudely-cast solid silver element with knop at one end and pin shaft at the other. The central part comprises an oval bead-shaped element with spiralling fluted decoration. 19mm in length. This puzzling artefact cannot be positively identified and is likely to be of 18th or 19th century date and therefore not within the scope of the Treasure Act (J. Rudoe, The British Museum, 8 March 2006).
