Description: | Incomplete medieval copper alloy tongue-shaped strap end. Most of the knop and the spacer are missing. The two sheet plates are secured by a rivet near the straight outside edge. The gap between them shows that there was one a spacer and the lack of a second rivet near the knop suggests that it was of the forked variety. The front plate is decorated with a zig-zag of lines of finely executed interrupted rocker-arm engraving giving the appearance of tiny addorsed triangles. Extant length 37.5mm. Width 8mm (before the knop 6.5mm). The rear plate stops 3mm short of the attachment edge. 14th century. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
