Description: | Central disc from an Early or Middle Saxon composite hanging bowl escutcheon, frame and hook missing. The champlevé enamel decoration consists of a geometric design derived from the running key motif framed by inner and outer concentric circles, with the outlines picked out in enamel, now appearing pale green and pink-tinged at central concentric circles, between lines of upstanding metal. The stump of a central rivet projects slightly on the reverse. Diameter 28mm. 6th-7th century.
