Title |
KENT-A81E58: Fede Finger Ring |
||
Description |
English: A Post Medieval silver finger Fede ring of 16th -17th century date. The bezel consists of two clasped hands with cuffs to either side. The rectangular sectioned band has insised zig zag decoration around the outside edge, for three quarters of the circumference; the back quarter is plain. There are no markings of the inside edge.
Fede (Italian meaning 'faith') rings were a popular love token from the 12th century and remained so well into 19th century. The hands joined symbolised the love and faith between two people. The ring is 23.5mm in diameter, 8.2mm wide and weighs 2.63 grams. Consequently, in terms of age and as the object contains a minimum of 10% precious metal it qualifies as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996. |
