Description: | A cast copper alloy medieval pendant formed from a quatrefoil openwork loop. Three loops are decorated with knop extensions. The fourth has a bar which would originally have allowed it to be attached to a mount of some kind which in turn would have been attached to a belt or girdle. The mount itself is no longer attached and was not found with the loop. The metal is slightly pitted and is a dark brownish-green colour. The loop is likely to date to around the 13th century based on a similar example in Egan and Pritchard, p.221, fig. 138, no.1189. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Booth, Anna | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
