Title
Medieval finger ring
Description
English: Medieval silver finger ring, the rectangular-sectioned band expanding slightly from the rear to the shoulders before abruptly becoming D-sectioned forming a pair of triagular facets on either side before expanding smoothly to form a stirrup-shaped bezel with an oval setting. The centre of the base of the setting is deeply convex, perhaps imitating a stone or to act as keying for paste to secure a separate stone. The band is decorated externally with a groove either side of a median beaded rib.

Height 23.5. Width 22mm. Internal diameter 18.5mm. Width of bezel 3.5mm. Weight 2.67g.

13th - 14th century.
