Description: | Medieval Composite strap-end with a highly unusual hybrid spacer, occupying full width but with V-shaped cut-out at proximal end, mimicking the forked form. Very elaborate trefoil knop (roughly similar to Norwich Households no. 232) formed from spacer and both sheet plates, one rivet near the straight attachment edge, another through the knop. The front plate is engraved with two reversed double-line N’s, both between a pair of transverse lines. Another unusual feature is the shortness of the rear plate, which stops 4mm short of its counterpart (there remains the possibility that this is a break rather than an original edge). Length 55mm, width 9.5mm. 14th century. | 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 |
