Description: | A cast copper-alloy bar mount of Medieval date. The bar is triangular in section with flat back and pointed front face, with hemispherical terminals at each end and a large central circular lobe with circular perforation. The front faces of the bar appear to have traces of very worn transverse grooved or moulded decoration as well as some gilding. Each of the terminals is pierced by a copper-alloy rivet that is cylindrical in form with a dome-shaped head. This mount measures 20.77mm in length, 6.13mm in width, 2mm in thickness, and weighs 1.34g. It is similar to an example published from Medieval London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: no. 1157) and probably dates to the late-13th to 14th centuries AD. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
