Description: | Cast Ae strap-fitting, possibly from horse harness, with inlaid decoration, now a whitish green but probably inlaid silver wire. The fretwork shape has a central keyhole shape opening with two rivet holes above it, one on either side, and a circular hole beneath. A loop, now broken, curls backwards beneath the hole. The inlaid decoration is not particularly stylistic, consisting of straight lines forming an angular framework, as seen on several of Williams' stirrup mounts, e.g. Nos. 34, 50, 57. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
