Description: | Horse harness pendant suspension mount, made from copper alloy, probably dating to around 15th century. The mount is cross shaped, three arms being of an equal length and having perforated terminals where rivets would have attached the mount to a horizontal leather strap. The fourth arm is where the pendant would have been suspended, a loop for which has been created by bending an elongated piece of the arm back on itself to form a loop. The mount is quite corroded and was probably decorated although this is no longer visible. The mount weighs 6.33g and measures 39.4mm in width and 35.5mm in length. | 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 | Temporal: | 1400
