Description: | Cast copper alloy cruciform mount with central domed boss. The mount is convex in profile, with each of the arms containing an attachment hole near the rounded ends, two of the attachment (?copper alloy) rivets remain in place. Each of the arms contains comparatively high mouldings before the central domed boss. The central portion is decorated with a simple cross composed of two incised diagonals, where one diagonal is split into two separate lines by the other complete diagonal.
It is difficult to determine what object the mount is derived from, it could have been a box, book or similar. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
