Description: | a copper alloy bar mount with pendant loop. It is a T-shaped bar, measuring 13.08mm in length and 7.15mm in width across the bar of the T. There are traces of white metal coating on the bar, which curves round and back upon itself to form a loop. From this loop a single oval shaped link is suspended, and moves freely. It measures 11.22mm in length and 10.75mm in width, and is 2mm in thickness. The pendant loop weighs 1.34g. Mounts with pendant loops allowed for various strap fittings and decorations. Examples dating to the fourteenth century from medieval London are illustrated in Egan and Pritchard, 1991, p.221, fig.138. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
