Description: | A cast copper-alloy harness pendant of Medieval date, c. 1150-1400.The pendant is shield-shaped in plan with a suspension loop extending out from the centre of the upper edge. The face of the shield has three lions or panthers facing left, defined in relief in copper-alloy. Only the top two are clearly visible, with traces of the bottom one suggesting a third. The field was presumably coloured with enamel, though no traces of this remain.The underside is undecorated.
