Description: | Post medieval copper alloy sword belt fitting, 32mm wide and 27mm high. The object has a dark brown patina and is in good condition. The object is roughly rectangular, with its sides bulging slightly. It has an integral loop emerging from the centre of its long edge which is of uneven thickness. There is a rivet in the centre of one short edge, which has iron staining on both sides. This edge is intact and consists of three points formed by two cutaway semi-circles. The other side which is slightly wider has snapped off and shows traces of a further rivet hole. The surface is decorated with raised scrollwork and plant motifs. | 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: | 1500
