Abstract
The photographs and drawings here illustrated have been placed at my disposal by Mr. Kendrick of the British Museum, and enable me to publish with the Curator's permission a short note on these very attractive trinkets. They are three fragments of silver found in the City of London and preserved in the Guildhall Museum. Each is part of a small cylinder provided with holes for rivets, to be fastened as a decoration on some kind of staff. The original destination of the object is not clear: in any case the cylinders seem too slender for a crozier shaft, but belonged to something worthy of this costly and aristocratic decoration.
