Description: | An Early Medieval, 9th century, copper alloy strap end decorated with inlaid enamel. The strap end is double riveted, with flat, convex-sided shaft, animal-mask terminal and plain reverse. One iron rivet is present, the other is missing. On the upper surface there is a panel of Trewhiddle style decoration - an interlace, zoomorphic design with the remains of inlaid enamel. The edge of the split end has been moulded to form a scalloped edge. | 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: | 800
