Description: | Rather battered horse-harness pendant suspension mount made from copper alloy. Originally shell-shaped, most edges are now missing but the semicircular upper edge and waisted lower part can be seen. From the waisted lower part extends one of an original pair of loops, made by folding a piece of projecting strip in half. The remains of an ?iron hinge bar survive. On the reverse of the mount is an integral square-section rivet. There is no decoration on the front; this type is often gilded, but there are no surviving traces of gilding.
