A well-cast silver tone St Christopher medal, the saint depicted wading through water carrying the Christ child with a mountainous landscape behind, bordered by the Latin inscription Sanctvs Christofor. The hand-scratched personal inscription to the reverse, reading J. Blackhall, suggests this was a genuinely meaningful piece to its original owner rather than a mass devotional trinket.
