Description: | Undated lead alloy axe pendant 26mm long, 25mm wide and 6mm thick. The object is in good condition and weighs 8.83grams. The axe is triangular in form with outwards curving sides and has arectangular section. It has a square butt end, now damaged, which has been pierced laterally to accomodate hanging. The axe is decorated with incised lines forming a solid border on each side. One side has the resulting triangle halved by a solid line and each side has two triangular motifs, arranged to mirrow each other. The other side has a central line which stops short of the lower edge and has two sub triangular motifs eminating from it, which results in an image a bit like a stalk and two leaves.
