The object takes the form of an openwork sexfoil with six lobes projecting outwards from a central fitting. The mounted stone appears to be a replacement, as the upper rivet hole is left empty, and the stone obscures the detail of the openwork front and back. The pendant is decorated on the front and back. When viewed from one side, the central mounted stone is comprised of an elongated hexagonally cut sapphire encased in a gold rub-over setting. This appears to be held in place by a single rivet, secured at the rear. Projecting from each edge of the central setting is a table cut …

An incomplete lead alloy pendant dating to the post medieval period, c. AD 1600-1750. The object is lozenge shaped in plan, with an extended upper point of the lozegen which would have acted as the suspension loop, now broken. It is flattened in cross section. The lozenge is divided by a thick central bar, and on either side there are further slender bars creating cells for possible enamel decoration. These appear to form a horizontal bar and a saltire, although without the enamel colours surviving they may have been intended to appear more floral than their current geometric app…
