A Guide to the mediaeval room and to the specimens of mediaeval and later times in the gold ornament room;
A museum guide published in London in 1907 by the British Museum's Department of British and Mediaeval Antiquities, written by O. M. Dalton and Charles Hercules Read for visitors to the mediaeval room and gold ornament room. The plates show medieval seals and pendants, a carved casket with a central portrait medallion, an inscribed stone block, and small coins. A designer might draw on the crisp heraldic roundels, the lion and castle devices, and the dense Arabic-style inscription bands for borders and emblems.
