Description: | Incomplete medieval copper alloy strap-slide with (missing) separate internal rivet. It is rectangular in shape with a decorative top edge, comprising a 3mm wide flattened mid-rib projecting 1mm above a thinner flange on either side. This flange is decorated with tiny incised diagonal lines.
The strap-slide measures 19x14.2mm (15.8mm) and weighs 1.86g. The piercing for the rivet is 1.9mm in diameter.
Two similar plain examples in Egan & Pritchard, 1991, (nos.1248 and 1249) date to the second half of the fourteenth century. | Subjects: | strap-slide | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Hinds, Katie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
