Description: | A decorated, copper-alloy buckle plate of the 13th-early 14th centuries.
The buckle plate is rectangular in plan and made from a single sheet of copper alloy, but missing about 20% of it in the lower lefthand corner. There are two circular rivet holes near the right edge of the plate, and there is a remainder of one of two hinges on the left edge of the buckle plate.
The plate is decorated with a raised left-facing lion, with its head looking back over its shoulder and its tail raised in an S-shape over its back. The background is stippled by multiple punches. There is a trace of gilding on the surface.
The reverse is undecorated | Subjects: | Plate | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Collins, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
