Description: | The upper plate of the strap end has been cast. This plate has a square shaped body with an incised ornament on the plate. The ornament is a linear item, reading 'IHC'. There are two holes along the edge of the plate. Along the opposite edge is a lozenge shape with a high-relief square platform in the centre which is decorated with an annulet. The terminal is a smaller moulded knop. The upper plate has lipped sides, therefore The lower plate is cut to fit the upper plate while creating a void between the square body of the upper plate and the lower plate. The lower plate is in a poor, corroded condition, whereas the upper plate is slightly corroded, but complete. On the upper plate there are traces of gilding. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
