Title
anglo-saxon bead
Description
English: Monochrome glass bead probably dating to between 8th-9th centuries. The bead is blue coloured and multi-lobed, or gadrooned. The gadroons are found all around the bead, there are 12 altogether. These are fairly regular in size and shape apart from one which is slightly flattened. The bead is annular with a large central perforation. Similar beads have been found in Anglo-Scandinavian contexts at both Pavement and Fishergate in York and a parallel for this object can be seen in ‘Anglian and other finds from Fishergate’ by Nicola Rogers, Figure 674. Nos. 4814 and 4817. The bead weighs 0.91g and measures 13mm in diameter and 6mm in thickness.
