Description: | A cast copper alloy gilded object, possibly a strap fitting.
The object has been cast as one piece and is triangular in shape. Three rivet holes survive on the object and one still contains the copper alloy rivet.
On the shorter straight end there are two projecting attachment elements. These elements perhaps once formed a loop which allowed the fitting to be attached to a strap.
The object is undecorated and corroded. Only traces of gilding survive.
The metal is a mid greyish-green colour; it is probably medieval in date. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | WALKER, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
