Description: | The mount has a rectangular central body, which has a rectangular shaped openwork in the centre. The elongated sides are slightly angled, therefore are triangular in cross-section. The surfaces of these sides has are decorated with a series oblique grooves. Protruding from one narrow edge of the rectangular body there is a semi-circular scallop shape. The opposite terminal is a sub-heart shape with a small knop on each side. In the centre of each of these terminals there is a copper alloy rivet head visible, but the rivet head surface is flush with the mount. On the reverse these rivets protrude. The rivets are circular in cross-section. The terminal has been hammared slightly, and a small copper alloy washer remains in place on each rivet. The mount has a dark grey patina, the rivets a mid green patina. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
