Object type: AMPULLA
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A very fine example of a cast lead ampulla. Ampullae were an important kind of pilgrim souvenir in the medieval period.

This ampulla is decorated with a relief design. One surface features a six petalled flower within a circle. There are chevrons around the edge o…
