Description: | A cast copper-alloy loop, probably from a strap mount or fitting of Medieval date. The loop is D-shaped in form, triangular in section with an offset and narrowed rectangular bar. At the corners of the frame are projecting lozenge shaped knops, all surfaces of hte frame having extensive visible tool marks. It measures 19.24mm in width, 10.25mm in length, 2.32mm in thickness and 1.05g in weight. This is a small loop, probably originally pendant from a bar mount or similar item and utilised for the suspension of objects from a leather belt. Similar examples are noted in London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: nos. 1189-1193) and suggest a probable 14th century AD date for the current example. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
