Description: | A sheet copper alloy strap-end of medieval date. The strap-end is of the double sheet with side strips variety. It measures 25.6mm by 15.1mm by 3.3mm and weighs 3.7g. In the centre of the open end there is a single rivet to hold the strap in place. The opposite end is angled. A broadly similar strap-end can be seen in Egan and Pritchard's 'Dress Accessories: Medieval Finds from Excavations in London' (1991, pp. 138-9, no. 640). This example is larger with half length side strips. Egan and Prichard date this type to between c. 1230-1450 (1991, p. 24). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
