Title
Post-medieval glass bottle seal
Description
English: A seal from a glass bottle. The seal is oval and has in its centre a shield with a vertical sword.

Lance Mytton has kindly provided the following information:

The seal is likely to be that of the the Dymoke family of Scrivelsby, Lincolnshire. J.C. Walter's 'History of Horncastle' (1908) records a brass in St Mary's Church commemorating Sir Lionel Dymoke. It once displayed shields showing the arms of Dymoke, Waterton, Marmyon, Hebden and Haydon, one of which is described as "Argent, a sword erect, azure, hilt and pomel gules". John Burke's "A geneaological and heraldic history of the Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland 1834" also shows a 19th century Dymoke of Scrivelsby armorial with two crests - one of which is an erect sword. It is possible that the seal is of Sir Charles Dymoke (1625-1688).

The object was discovered in Wood Enderby, Lincolnshire, which is quite close to Scrivelby, which would indicate that the seal is not far from its source and former owner.
