Title
Post Medieval silver bosons whistle
Description
English: Post medieval silver cosmetic implement, 75mm long and 5mm wide. The object is formed from a single sheet of silver with decorative edges. It has a small circular bowl at one end.

Silver ear scoop, bodkin shaped with scoop at one end, baluster-shaped central section and pointed end, flat section. Very thin silver sheet, so perhaps protected in a case with other toilet implements? There is no sign of an attachment loop or hinge linking this object to others in a set.

Probably 17th Century.
Depicted place (County of findspot) Leicestershire
