Description: | Incomplete crescentic strap-end. It has the usual decoration; a large relief-decorated knop resembling a tree or bush, and a crescentic attachment plate with engraved decoration to resemble the roots of the tree or bush. Part of the knop is missing. The attachment plate has three complete rivet holes with copper-alloy rivets, and is broken at a fourth hole. The workmanship of this example is fairly poor but there are traces of a shiny silvery coating which is probably pale gilding. The backplate is missing. | Subjects: | crescentic strap end | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
