Description: | A worn cast copper-alloy medieval two-part horse harness pendant. The incomplete outer frame is in the form of a quatrefoil with a cusp in each angle, though the lower half is missing. The apex of the frame has a pierced attachment loop, which is turned 90ยบ to the frame and has the remains of an iron pin through it. The inner pendant is attached to the outer frame by a corroded iron pin through a rectangular loop and still slightly swings. The pendant is in the form of a flower with six petals. Although most of the decoration has worn away, there is a blue enamelling ring in the centre and traces of gilding. The surviving length of the pendant is 38.1mm, the surviving width is 26.1mm and the weight is 6.42g.
