GaryD's Mucky Fingers Metal Detecting

Welcome to the artefact page 7

We must have dug up twenty of these Victorian brass curtain rings. It got me thinking, what if the heaver bronze rings we find, could these be curtain rings from four-poster beds? Just a thought!!!. Beds were very expensive and only a gentleman would have a bedstead. Brass rings held curtains around the bed to protect the sleeper against drafts. Back Hosted by www.Geocities.ws
