It stands 29mm high.The top consists of a moulded disc. The main body is decorated with 4 sections which make it sub-square. Each section has a 2 pronged foliate design which curve out slightly at the base to form feet. The sections are divided by a raised triangle.This object is very heavy to be a sword pommel but no clearer parallels can be drawn.
