Thats enough of Ralph...   Cheesy

Out for a few hours with Alun Deadlock and SpineyDave and got this little ball of something interesting....
The ball came out with the first spadefull, but the Deus said I'd missed a bit and I then found the seperate bit you can see in the piccy....  recheck of hole again said no more to be found...

I'm just off to let it soak in some warm water, will update with a photo tomorrow when the ball has dissolved Smiley

Meanwhile place your bets here and see if you are right tomorrow... Wink

(second photo has 2 x centimeter marks for sizing)

That's what I was thinking Dylan.  Like the Police used to have but they had a clip on each side, so two round thingies.
That looks too fine for that so I'll go for a Victorian necklace for my 1st guess and an Indian design chain for 2nd.

Is it silver ?

Would never have thought of a cloak chain Smiley   But I think that the chain is a little to fine for that, it seems quite crudely made, but what do I know. Well, a night soaking and a couple of turns in the ultrasonic bath and we get this...

How the hell I go about untangling it is another matter Sad

As it's age is uncertain, and if it's silver, that's what it appears to me, my advice would be be to leave it as it is before you go any further and contact your FLO as it could be a treasure case?

My thoughts exactly.  Shame to let it go but it could be something they are familiar with.  It certainly looks intentional. And on second thoughts I don't think it is a Victorian chain. Wink

Have a look at some of these..  I think it could be part of a cloak clasp.
