Description: | Complete copper alloy medieval horse harness suspension mount and pendant with traces of gilding. The suspension mount is in the form of a six-segmented 'flower', the sixth and lowermost segment of which extends to become the suspension itself, developing two arms holdoing between them an axis bar on which the pendant hangs. Through the middle of the 'flower' is a rivet which extends through the reverse and has a flat but round 3.5mm diam head which forms the centre of the decoration. The pendant is also a six-segmented 'flower' which hangs from a loop extending from one of the segments. It is rather flatter in design than the suspension mount. Total length 43mm, max width 13mm. | 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 | Creator: | Katie Hinds | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
