Description: | Probably post medieval copper alloy openwork mystery object with red enamel inlay. The object is hemispherical in shape, and hollow. At the centre of the curve is a 2mm diameter piercing. Around this are three openwork pointed ovals. Beneath these are six triangular shapes with incurved edges, running around the open edge of the object. Two adjoining triangles are filled with red enamel, suggesting they were all filled with red enamel. The diameter of the object is 19mm (external) and 15mm (internal). Its height is 12.5mm. Cf a similar example from Norfolk, PAS find no. NMS-212. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
