There is a circular hole at one end. There is decoration on one side in the form of three rows of annulets. In two rows there are five annulets and in the final row there are six annulets. There are also traces of gilding still visible. There is no evidence of decoration or gilding on the back of the object. There are sub-rectangular hooked tags known and recorded on the PAS database, for examples, see ESS-39FF15.
