Description: | Copper alloy mount of Medieval date. The object would originally have been rectangular but is now incomplete. The object comprises a thin plain border framing an openwork design which may be zoomorphic, perhaps a bird, but is now badly damaged. The upper surface of the openwork decoration is slightly convex. In the two surviving corners of the mount there are rivet holes, one of which retains the remains of the original copper alloy rivet. There are traces of gilding on the upper surface. Patchy reddish-brown and mid-green patina. | 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: | 1301
