Description: | Copper alloy mount of a lion, probably Post-medieval in date.
The lion is complete and has been cast. There is a cylindrical knop coming from the top of the lions mane. The face, mane and rear have been defined but the middle part of the body is smooth. The feet have rounded ends.
The style of this ornamental mount suggests a Post-medieval date of c.1800-1900. It could possibly be from the Near East and have been brought back as a souvenir. | Subjects: | Mount | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McIntosh, Frances | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
