Description: | An incomplete gilt copper alloy mount, possibly of Early Medieval date. The mount is C-sectioned and around part of the section is a pattern of circumferencial mouldings which are separated b strips of silver wire. This is now worn but it appears to have originally been beaded. It was held in place by being threaded through holes and bent around. A notch that is part the way along the tube does not appear to have been an original feature. The length is 43.0mm, the width at one end is 8.9mm and 6.2mm at the other and the weight is 3.40g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Staves, Lisa - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
