Medieval bi-conical cast lead spindle whorl, lines/pellets design. Possibly Walton Type C.  The whorl is carinated. Both faces are convex. (Has a ridge around the circumference) The surface is worn but  each cone has relief moulded decoration of pellets divided by transverse lines. The perforation is sub-circular. Thick white patina. Walton Rogers suggested a change in design over time: the post-11th-century whorls became rounder in shape with no flat faces, and were either globular, spherical, or rounded bi-conical known as Type/Form C. However Standle…
