Description: | Male and female pair of silvered copper alloy hooked tags. The female tag is flat, D-shaped in plan and has a rectangular bar at one end. Evenly spaced around the perimeter are three integral trefoil shaped loops for attachment to the cloth. The perimeter of the surface is decorated with punched ring and dot motifs. In the centre of the face is an incised flower or plant with six stems with curved terminals. Above the plant are four incised crescents and an incised and ribbed triangle. Dimensions: 35mm x 28mm x 1mm.
The male tag is also flat and D-shaped in plan, and decorated in the same way as its partner. Instead of a rectangular bar there is an upturned and curved foot forming a simple hook. Dimensions: 42mm x 33mm x 1mm | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Daubney, Adam - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
