Description: | A cast copper-alloy bar mount of Medieval date. It is hemispherical in form with a slightly concave back face and decorative front face. To each side are projecting hemispherical lugs with central circular rivet holes, one retaining a separately cast cylindrical rivet with flattened heads. The front face of the mount has incised decoration comprising a series of parallel vertical grooves, the resultant ribs each decorated with numerous transverse grooves. The mount measures 17.54mm in length, 9.91mm in width, 4.04mm in thickness, and weighs 1.61g. This mount is similar to examples from London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: nos. 1160-1161) and dates to the 14th century AD. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
