Description: | A cast copper alloy Romano-Celtic circular mount in excellent condition. In the centre of the mount is an enamel cell in the form of a curvilinear swastika. The four arms of the swastika are flowing in an anti-clockwise direction. The style is very similar to the traditional triskelle (tri-loped) Celtic design. The swastika still has the remains of red enamel. Around the outside of the swastika are the remains of yellow/white enamel. The back of the mount has a square stud in the centre, which tapers to a rounded point (width is 5.5mm, length is 8.7mm). The diameter of the mount is 28.7mm, thickness is 5.3mm and the weight is 22.65g. | 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: | -100
