Description: | The mount is square in plan, however a corner of the mount is missing. Covering the majority of the upper surface is a circular dome decorated with four radiate ridges forming a 'X' shape. At the apex of the dome is a dome-heads rivet which has been flattened on the reverse. The mount has a border which has been engraved and consists of an irregular way line with an inner irregular 'line'. The upper surface has gilding evident. The reverse of the mount is undecorated and is convex. The thickness of the mount at the edges is 2.78mm, however the thickness of the metalwork at the dome is only 1.7mm. The item has a dark green patina. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
