This large bronze ring bezel, was the some total of yesterday afternoons good finds. It shows a heart pierced by arrows. Above the heart could be a eye, dropping tears on to the heart. Age wise, would guess 17th/18th century. Robert.

Great find Rob. Thanks for sharing...
 
Amazing find ! I wonder if it could have been used as a seal ring ? It looks as if the design elements are incuse .
 
wonderful ring, very nice indeed.
 
Very nice ring. Wear it for good luck.
 
Very nice piece of jewelry! :occasion14:
 
I would call that a "Broken Heart Ring Seal",, but I have an overactive imagination. lol
Congrats on a very nice but different find.
 
A look at the profile would help, but I'm going 14th C on that baby! Nice!!!
 
very nice find! I thought it looked a bit older than 18th, too.. I assume you checked the hole and surroundings for the missing piece? Congrats
 
Cool Find ... Congrats on the ring !!! Looks older than anything found around here.
 
CONGRATULATIONS ! very cool save

I observed an all seeing eye see below. I also feel this was a seal. Look with a 20-30X loupe in some of the tight corners for traces of wax residue.

Cheers and Congratulations again

Ugh, I know. It was a fully functioning website until a auto-renewal error caused it to be wiped completely. I need to get it re-built but have been putting it off, and putting it off.
