Description: | Incomplete copper alloy dagger pommel. The pommel is bun shaped, solid and has a tapering hole in the centre. The lower hemisphere of the pommel is undecorated, whlist the upper is decorated with two deep grooves creating three undulating lobes. Only half of the pommel remains.
Pommels such as this are typical of the 15th century and are represented on effigies and brasses such as the knife on the brass of Sir Symon Felbrig at Falbrigg, Norfolk (44-45, 1967, Ward-Perkins), or the sword on the brass of John Hadresham at Lingfield, Surrey (27, 1967, Ward-Perkins) which both date to the early 15th century. Nevertheless, there are similar examples that date to early 16th century such as a German on a boar sword (95, 1967, Wilkinson). | Subjects: | Pommel | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Daubney, Adam - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
