Description: | Incomplete medieval copper alloy tongue-shaped strap end with a full-width spacer and acorn knop. Both outer sheet plates are missing except at the knop. The spacer, both faces of which carry traces of solder, tapers towards a pair of opposed rounded cut-outs immediately before the knop. The latter is composed of the aforementioned three elements plus two outer moulded plates. All five are secured by a rivet which is scarcely discernible beneath the cross-hatching of the acorn's cup, which was engraved after the object had been assembled. Extant length 61.2mm. Width 17mm. Thickness at knop 6mm. 14th century. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/ | Go to resource |
