Description: | A complete copper alloy sheet medieval furniture fitting. On one end is a shield-shaped plate, below which is a strip of metal with a leaf-shape terminal. This end of the strip is folded back 180?? and the edges are chamfered. There are rivet holes through both ends of the strip. This object may be some sort of decorative fitting from a casket or book and a mediaeval date seems likely. The length is 29.7mm, the width is 16.4mm, the thickness is 1.6mm and the weight is 5.07g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Staves, Lisa - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
