Within the history of metalworking, medieval stone moulds are well represented in the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum in Coventry with over 169 examples. The moulds from Coventry are from a highly calcareous mudstone of Jurassic type. Some moulds were used as a one use mould for objects made from precious metals for an elite clientele, but most were for more mundane objects such as belt buckles and were used until they were broken or cracked. Moulds changed along with fashion which allows them to be dated quite accurately.
