Description: | A cast copper alloy object which is probably the front piece of a dagger chape.
The piece is curved and dished, with a concave inter. It has been decorated with large raised knops and then openwork hole decoration. The object is roughly crescent shaped and curves up at both edges; both of these terminals are broken and damaged.
The metal is a mid greyish-green colour and the metal is heavily pitted. It may date to the 13th - 14th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
