Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy purse bar. This purse bar is 61mm in length and has a circular cross-section with a diameter of 7mm. This bar has an integral attachment plate with two evenly spaced holes through it. The bar itself has one missing terminal, due to an old break and one complete one. The complete terminal is narrower than the bar but also has a circular cross section, it has a hollow knop which fits onto the terminal. The bar is decorated with a pair of grooves which form a lozenge shaped design, these grooves have what appears to be black neillo, or silver sulphide, inlaid into them, it is however missing in places. This type of purse bar is most likely to have belonged to a late 15th or early 16th century purse. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
