Overview +3 These objects are likely post-medieval lead cloth seals, used to regulate and tax the textile industry. Seals were attached to bales of cloth with information like the manufacturer, origin, and quality, similar to modern clothing tags. They often feature stamped designs, such as privy marks, merchant marks, or official symbols like the Irish Harp or the St. George's cross. The seals are significant archaeological finds because the cloth itself rarely survives, and the seals help date archaeological contexts. The designs on the seals can sometimes help identify the specific period or location of production, such as seals from the Commonwealth period or those stamped with "Leyden".
