Description: | Incomplete and bent Early saxon copper alloy mount, probably from a strap, rectangular, one end missing, with one round-sectioned, integral rivet remaining. Decoration in counter-relief within a frame comprises two pairs of strands in two lengths, two double-strand S-shapes and a rectangular dot. The panel is complete, so that either it was set asymmetrically or the object was considerably longer and perhaps had two panels. There are faint traces of what may have been tinning. Extant length 17mm. Width 7mm. Thickness 1.2mm. Length of rivet 3mm. 6th century.
