Description: | A worn fragment of a copper alloy harness pendant suspension mount, one of the terminal ends survives, measuring 22mm in length and 7mm in width. The terminal ends in a triangular-shaped protrusion which tapers to a point. This protrusion projects from a roughly rectangular shaped flat bar, with a circular perforation throught it. On the front face the remains of a cusp can be seen as well as traces of gilding. The back face is flat and undecorated. This terminal is most likely to be from a horizontal suspension mount, such as those found in London which are medieval in date, 1150-1450 (Clark 1995, 69, Fig 52). | Subjects: | Harness pendant suspension mount. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
