Description: | A small fragment of silver plate which has been pressed.
The plate is roughly rectangular in shape, but has broken edges all the way around. The plate has been pressed from the front, creating five surviving cells. Each cell is triangular in shape. The triangles are marked out by incised lines, which have rows of pressed dots stamped into them. Three of the surviving triangular shapes contain detailed engravings; the other two cells are undecorated.
The reverse is undecorated apart form the impressions caused by the embossing on the front.
The artefact is unidentified but must be post 1750 due to the use of a press. | 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: | 1750 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
