Description
14th century A.D. Modelled in the round standing female figure wearing an elegantly draped ankle-length robe, left arm extended; mounting spike to head; possibly image of a saint Cf. PAS IOW-40E078, for a similar figure in lead-alloy. 103 grams, 12 cm (4 3/4 in.).

Found near Wetwang, East Yorkshire, UK. Acquired circa 2005. Ian Wilkinson collection, Nottinghamshire, UK.
