Description: | Post Medieval copper alloy and gold mount, 42mm long, 37mm wide and 2mm thick. The object is in fair condition with a green patina and weighs 7.01 grams. The object is roughly crescentric in form (or would be if complete) and has a pointed terminal protruding from the centre of its outer edge, which is decorated with a flower motif, a flower and stem flanked by a leaf at each side. Below this, in the centre of the crescent is a Tudor rose which is flanked by trailing foliate decoration. Emerging from the inner centre of the crescent is a tapering section which terminates in a Fluer de Lis motif. All of this decoration is gilded. The reverse holds a tapering prong behind the pointed terminal and has the circular base of another behind the fleur motif. The object is probably a harness mount. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Scott, Wendy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
