Description: | Cast copper alloy horse pendant suspension bar. The object is badly corroded. The bar is 65.5mm wide. At either end of the bar are perforations for iron rivets, of which traces of one are still apparent. There are decorative knops at each terminal of the bar. The suspension loop is visible as an integral U-shaped tag on the lower side of the bar. This would have been an ovoid tag, folded behind the bar to form a loop. The back part of the loop has been broken, leaving this U-shaped tag. The only traces of decoration are two lines shown in relief at either end of the bar, inside from the rivet holes. There are traces of blue enamel on one area of the face, and some signs of gilding. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Echtenacher, Beth - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
