Description: | Fragment of medieval gilt copper alloy strap fitting with convex headed rivet, rounded terminal, expanding to distorted break. Although a flat strip, the object is clearly cast. A broad transverse moulded groove or flute next the end and two small projections on the sides combine with an area of closely spaced punched impressions to suggest an animal head. The remainder is covered with a curling stem and trefoil reserved against a background of similar punched impressions. Length >21mm. Maximum width 12.5mm. Probably 12th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bales, Ellen - Norfolk Museums and Archaeology Service | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
