Title
cloth seal
Description
English: Lead cloth seal used to mark newly-woven cloths. The seal has a flat circular disc with a rivet and the remains of a second disc which is attached to the rivet on top of the other disc. These two discs would have been folded around the edge of the textile and pushed through the fabric. The cloth seal would have had some kind of motif or marking stamped on one or both sides but these are no longer visible. The seal probably dates to the post-medieval period. This type of seal was in use up to the 19th century. The seal weighs 7.73g and measures 21.45mm in diameter and 6.07mm in thickness.
