| Description |
English: Amethyst
Intaglio. Flat oval gemstone, cut with the slightly left-facing (as viewed) bust and shoulders of a man with sideburns and beard but no moustache, wearing a jacket with prominently high lapels. The reversed legend BRIGHT appears below the bust. Presumably from a seal or seal ring. The back of stone bears diagonal marks from sawing. The edges of stone are bevelled.
The image resembles that of John Bright (1811-1889), a <a title="Quaker" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaker">Quaker</a>, <a title="Radicals (UK)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radicals_(UK)">Radical</a>, and <a title="Liberal Party (UK)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_Party_(UK)">Liberal</a> <a title="Statesman" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statesman">statesman</a>, associated with <a title="Richard Cobden" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Cobden">Richard Cobden</a> in the formation of the <a title="Anti-Corn Law League" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Corn_Law_League">Anti-Corn Law League</a>. He was a noted orator and in later life a critic of British foreign policy. If he is indeed the subject of this stone, its user and/or loser may have been involved in aspects of his political campaigns
