Description: | The pendant is a square shape in plan. The edges are slightly ribbed. One face of the pendant is decorated. The decoration is formed by a low-relief square, which has a small ridge border within the high-relief external border. The the centre of the pendant there is a circular hole. The reverse of the pendant, in the centre, has a slightly high-relief ring within which there is a hole. This hole presumably supported a decorative mount.Protruding from the centre of the upper edge of the pendant a loop protrudes which is perpendicular to the pendant. The loop has a fragment of copper alloy wire which is threaded through a 'n' shape. The lower arms of the 'n' shape have holes through which the wire is threaded, forming a hinge withthe pendant. The upper edge of the 'n' shape is broken, but not recently.
