Description: | A cast copper alloy shield-shaped harness pendant. The suspension loop is intact, with part of the pin in situ. The pendant is well preserved with a smooth surface and a light, blotchy patina. Most of the red enamel ground survives on the face; this stops short of the edge in an even line. Within this ground is a ??cross flory??. No gilding survives. I. Szymanski has identified this as the arms of the Latimer family, specifically a father and son both called William le Latimer. This artefact dates to the late 13th or early 14th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | ANDREWS, Dominic - Illustrator | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
