Description: | Stirrup strap mount
Early Medieval 11th century
Length width thickness
The artefact is an openwork design with a lozenge shaped body that has an X-shape in the centre, which in turn divide the body into for separate lozenges. The area where the arms of the X cross over are thickened as are the areas where the X joins with the lozenge and the corners of the lozenge itself. There is an attachment loop at the top protruding from the corner. At the bottom corner there is a rectangular expansion with two revert holes this than turns back on itself to form a almost right angle on the reverse side of the object.
The artefact is copper alloy, it has suffered considerably from corrosion removing it original surface and leaving a pitted dark green layer. | Subjects: | strap mount | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Adams, Kurt - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
