Description: | Cast copper alloy mount, probably a box fitting. The mount is almost symmetrical and is an elongated strip of copper alloy with one pierced trefoil terminal, and one long pierced tapering terminal. The trefoil terminal contains a copper alloy rivet. In the centre of the mount is a square panel decorated with a lion walking right and swiping with his front paw. The lion is set in a circular cell containing green enamel, and is the correct way up when the mount is aligned vertically. A length of bar extends either side which is triangular in cross-section, and at either end is another undecorated square panel. The mount has been bent in antiquity. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Daubney, Adam - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
