Description: | A heavily corroded and incomplete copper-alloy strap type mount of probable late 13th to mid 15th century AD date (see. J .Brenan in G. Egan; 1998; pp. 65). It is suggested that such mounts were decorative fittings for chests and caskets.
The object consists of a flat copper-alloy strap with parallel sides and one surviving rounded terminal. A small circular rivet hole is located within this terminal end. The piece measures 46.1mm long, 6.6mm wide and 1.4mm thick. The weight is 1.73g. | 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: | 1270
