Description: | Copper-alloy button-and-loop fastener, of Wild's class VIc. The head is basically rectangular, with gently rounded sides and corners; it measures 17 x 12 mm. It has a raised border and longitudinal line along the centre, plus two raised lozenges bisected by the longitudinal line, all forming six outer and four inner triangular cells for enamel. The inner cells retain some white enamel in fairly good condition, but the enamel in the outer cells has completely decayed away. The stem projects from the reverse and then turns at a right angle; there is a lot of bubbly copper corrosion in the angle. The loop is drop-shaped, with a rounded end. | Subjects: | Wild's class VIc | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Geake, Helen - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
