Description: | Part of a horse harness pendant hanger frame (possibly related to SWYOR-C5F3B1 ) from which a pendant would have hung and swung freely. This type of hanger commonly has three arms through which rivets would fasten the frame to the leather harness although it appears that one has broken away. The two remaining arms protrude horizontally from a flat central plate with cast, and once enamelled, decoration in the form of a six-pointed star with a central boss. Below the central plate there are two arms with a hole in between from which the pendant hung. The hanger weighs 11.93g and measures 59.9mm in width across the arms, 24.18mm in length and 4.14mm in thickness. | Subjects: | Hanger | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Marshall, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
