Description: | Cast copper-alloy heraldic harness pendant. Shield-shaped, with broken suspension loop at the top, and circular perforation close to the bottom (which is likely to have served as a means of attachment when the loop broke). Above: is a leopard passant gardant (badly worn), with a recessed area around it which would have held enamel; below: a castle with a central tower and two turrets, within a shiled-shaped field and surrounded by well-preserved red enamel. The door is also in red enamel, and one window within a turret also survives as red enamel. The reverse is heavily worn with rough and uneven surfaces. | Subjects: | Heraldic | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Worrell, Sally - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
