Description: | Mid Saxon-Late Saxon Strap-end in rather abraded condition, two rivets in split attachment edge. Animal-head terminal lacking detail, but niello inlay and large ears are visible. Above these a large panel of semi-symmetrical ornament, either foliar or zoomorphic, with niello inlay extends up onto the split end, there being no fan-shaped field. On the reverse of the terminal an oval (9mm x 5mm) patch of silvery material, probably solder, is of unknown purpose. 41mm x 12mm. Thomas’ Class A, Type 1. 9th century. | Subjects: | Anglo-Saxon | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bales, Ellen - Norfolk Museums and Archaeology Service | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
