Description: | A cast copper alloy miniature escallop-shell shaped harness pendant. The suspension loop survives, but it has been torn open. There are small triangular projections on either side of the base of the loop. The shell is decorated with raised ridges and traces of a black paint/lacquer are still visible. The reverse is undecorated but a small stud projects out from the back of the shell. The object is well worn with a mid reddish-brown patina. It is medieval in date.
