Description: | A cast copper-alloy harness pendant of medieval date. The harness pendant is scallop shell shaped, with nine 'ribs' visible on the front, depicting the ridges and grooves of the shell. The reverse is slightly dished and undecorated. The mount tapers in width towards the top, though it expands to become circular in section. At the top there is a broken suspension loop, where the pendant would have been attached to a harness mount. The broken suspension loop is perpendicular to the plane of the pendant. The pendant measures 28.3 mm long, 13 mm wide, 3.9 mm thick and weighs 3.7 grams. It has a rough green patina, also brown to grey in places.
