Description: | Incomplete medieval gilt copper alloy cruciform harness mount for the suspension of a pendant with three attachment holes between double cusps and tongue-shaped terminal lobes (the lobe on one transverse arm is missing). Very little gilding has survived. The form is quite common, e.g. one from London (Griffiths, N. in Clark 1995, 69, no. 75), with details of cusps and terminals as ibid. no. 73. Both form and decorative details can be seen on many examples on this database, e.g. WILT-8C0BA7. Height 42mm. Estimated width 57mm. 13th - 14th century | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
