Description: | Copper alloy bar mount of Medieval date. In the centre of the mount is a domed circular lobe, the reverse of which is concave. The upper surface of this element bears incised decoration in the form of four lateral parallel grooves divided by three ridges. There are also a series of short incised longitudinal intersecting with the lateral grooves forming cross-hatched decoration in the centre. There is a short sub-rectangular element at each end with a rivet hole in the centre of each. Both rivet holes retain the remains of the copper alloy rivet which project from the reverse, and one of which is bent over towards the centre of the mount. Dark green patina. It is 15.85mm long, 10.8mm long, 4.1mm thick and weighs 1.49g. Parallels are known from London (Egan, G. & Pritchard, F. 1991, p. 213-214). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Puls, Jodi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
