Description: | Middle Saxon/Late Saxon Strap-end of Thomas?(2003) Class A Type 5. Rear part of split end missing. Two rivet holes near bi-lobed attachment edge. Fan-shaped field outlined by moulded V-section groove. Two rectangular fields filled with dark niello and spirals of silver wire. Most of the inlay in one field is missing. The animal head consists of ears formed from moulded grooves, eyes of drilled holes emphasised by curving mouldings and the curve of the sides, and an elongated snout. The area of the brow appears to carry inlay but the surface condition makes the size and shape of this uncertain. Length 45mm. Width 10mm. 9th century. | 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
