found: Wikipedia, June 15, 2006(Franks Casket: The Franks Casket (or the Auzon Runic Casket) is a little whalebone chest, dating due to its pagan elements early 7th century, decorated with images and Futhorc runic inscriptions. It was probably a treasure chest of an Anglo-Saxon king, such as Edwin of Northumbria, or Penda of Mercia, the last pagan king of Anglo-Saxon England. It is now kept in the British Museum.)

The casket, a carving made of whalebone, counts among the most outstanding objects from Anglo-saxon days. It was made around 650 n. Chr. somewhere in the North of England, most likely in Northumbria. The casket was owned by a middle class family in Auzon, Haute Loire (France). There it had served as a lady's sewing box, until a son of the family chose to trade in the silver for a silver ring. Without its fittings, the container fell apart.)
