Description: | A possible copper alloy Roman mount inlaid with millefiori enamel. It is rectangular in plan, but two corners are abraded and are now rounded. An outer border encloses the enamel which is made up of a millefiori squares of red and white enamel.
The length of the object is 32.2mm and the width is 23.6mm. In thickness it is 2.7mm. It weighs 6.22 grams.
The reverse of the object is flat and undecorated. There are no obvious mounting points, which would perhaps suggest a function.
The copper alloy has, on most of the surface a heavy mid green patina.
The object is probably Roman. | 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: | 43
