Description: | Fragment of a lead unidentified object, possibly a mount or brooch. The fragment is flat and crescentric, and appears to be the terminal of a penannular bracelet or similar shaped mount. The terminal is in the form of a snakes head as seen from above. The head is roughly lozenge shaped set within a perimeter defined by a deep channel. The eyes are two round holes which go right through to the other side, suggesting that they were used to contain rivets rather settings. The body of the snake is decorated with incised v-shaped scales. The reverse is slightly concave. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Daubney, Adam - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
