> A related but different query: were episcopal rings often (or were they
ever) signet rings? Could an epicopal ring also be an episcopal seal? My
Impressionis that medieval seals were far too big for this sort of thing

originally a stone (or metal matrix) set in a ring.
it is quite modest in size --less than an inch high-- and could have been part
of a ring.
