[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 983990, member: 5833"]Count me in too. This doesn't exactly get us any farther along in identifying painting, painter or owner, but I love having one more tidbit that contributes to the picture of the life it has led. Gives a strong clue about age. I'm sure Jivvy is currently working on when these devices & signet rings with them stopped being used. Wonder why West Yorkshire put the ring Jivvy showed as anywhere 1400 - 1600 while this one they think is around 1600: [URL]https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/510156[/URL] [IMG]https://finds.org.uk/images/elburnett/medium/2012T477.JPG[/IMG] Jivvy's ring is the better made & only some gilding is lost. The matrix on that one is also the same shape as the painting; this one approximates it.[/QUOTE]
