Description: | A cast copper alloy quatrefoil harness pendant. The suspension loop is complete and the pendant is in fair condition. The pendant is complete, and includes small corners between the lobes of the quatrefoil. The surface is corroded, with green and grey blotches, and appears slightly uneven. There is some scratch damage on the face. However, much of the blue enamel survives; this surrounds a large, well-proportioned fleur-de-lis which fills the face. A trace of silvering remains at the top. I. Szymanski identifies this as the emblem of the Virgin Mary. This artefact dates to the 13th to 15th centuries.
