Description: | A complete cast copper alloy furniture fitting of Medieval date. The fitting is rectangular in plan and triangular in section. It has a ledge that runs all the way round the outer edge, bearing incised corded decoration. One corner is slightly damaged.In function, the object appears to be a collar or spacer of some sort, possibly related to furniture. An alternative would be for a sword handle, but no parallel was found for this latter possible function.
