Ca. 1300-1500 AD. Late Byzantine period. A gilded silver ring with a D-section band and flared shoulders decorated with circular, swirling, and coiled motifs. The circular bezel depicts a double-headed eagle beneath a cross encircled by a band of scrolled tendrils. Excellent condition; fully wearable. The double-headed eagle was a common mythological figure in ancient Mesopotamia, Syria, Asia Minor, Egypt, and among the Mycenaean civilisation. It reappears on Greek soil in the 13th century in Byzantine art, when it started to be used as an emblem of the Byzantine Empire. The two heads of the eagles symbolized the claim by the Byzantine Emperor to both eastern and western halves of the Roman empire. In Imperial iconography, it was used to distinguish the emperor (double-headed eagle) from the king (one-headed eagle). We find the double-headed eagle also used by some merchant ships of the Italian peninsula to show their tax-exempt status. Nowadays, the black double-headed eagle on a yellow background is used as a symbol of the Orthodox Church all over the world. For more information about the double-headed eagle, see Chotzakoglou, C. (2000). 'Eagle, Double-Headed: Emblem of the Byzantine Empire'. In G. Speake (ed), Encyclopedia of Greece and the Hellenic Tradition. London; New York: Routledge, 521. For more information on Byzantine rings, see Pollio, T.N. (2018). Ancient Rings - An Illustrated Collector's Guide. McFarland, Incorporated, Publishers, 85f. Size: D: 20.68mm / US: 11 / UK: V1/2; 15.7g. Provenance: From an old British collection formed in the 1990s; previously acquired in Germany.
Ca. 1300-1500 AD. Byzantine. A wearable gilded silver ring with a circular band with flared shoulders decorated with small linear incisions that form a crown around the circular protruding bezel; the bezel is decorated with an incised double-headed eagle surmounted by a cross.

Ca. 400-600 AD. Migration Period. A long iron sword with a long, pointed, bevelled blade, a rectangular guard and a rectangular tang for insertion into a handle. The Migration Period, which started during the decline of the Western Roman Empire (ca. 5th century AD), saw the widespread migration of and invasions by peoples, notably Germanic tribes and the Huns, in the Roman Empire. Many of these peoples were heavily armed and able to carve out their own kingdoms through force of arms. This sword may have belonged to a warrior from a Germanic tribe, who fought for his people's place in the world during a brutal and savage time when might in battle was prized above all else. Mounted on a custom-made stand. Excellent condition. For more information on Migration period swords, see Bradford, J. C. (2004). International Encyclopedia of Military History. Taylor & Francis, 415. Size: L:815mm / W:65mm ; 445g. Provenance: Property of a London gentleman, part of his family collection formed in the 1980s.
