Description: | A cast copper alloy Medieval horse harness pendant, dating from the 13th to 15th centuries. The harness pendant is quartefoil in plan and had an oval suspension loop at its apex. The design on the front of the pendant appears to be a crude imitation of a lion rampant, or similar creature; the creature is striding left and has its tail curled over its back. This zoomorphic design is set within a square panel; crude fleurettes protrude from each side of the square. The harness pendant is now bent out of shape but overall it is in good condition.
