Description: | Two dome-headed studs of white metal of basically very similar production. The large circular heads are 19mm in diameter, made of metal 1.5mm thick, but domed to a thickness of 6mm. The pin or nail-shaft proceeding from the undersides, present in one case but broken in the other, is rectangular or square, 1.5mm, in section and tapers gradually to the point over a length of 20mm. These studs resemble furnishing or saddlery studs for holding leather or textile to wood and leaving a shiny, smooth or domed surface visible. Date uncertain, but probably post-mediaeval. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
