Above the head is the remains of a loop set at 90 degrees to the object, for suspension from a harness pendant mount, which is lacking. There is a suggestion or trace os tinning/silvering on the upper 'elbow' of one of the wings. the outer breadth from 'shoulder' to shoulder is 19mm and the height from head to tail is 25mm, but the overall height with the loop is 32mm. | Subjects: | heraldic | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Plunkett, Tom - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
