Description: | A cast copper alloy quatrefoil harness pendant. Worn projections survive between the lobes of the quatrefoil. The suspension loop is broken and the pendant is in poor condition. The surface is corroded, with a light green colour. However, some of the enamel survives and the heraldic design is clear. A central red square contains a poorly-depicted lion passant gardant. The projections are also red. Each lobe is decorated with a fleur-de-lis; there were originally on a blue background. This artefact dates to the 13th to 15th centuries. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | ANDREWS, Dominic - Illustrator | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
