Cast openwork strap end with a flat rectangular end of thickness 0.9mm with a single iron rivet of diameter 2.5mm, and with the start of an openwork design adjacent rendered as a thicker continuation of the plate. Though most of the decorated panel is lost, what remains is worn and may suggest the object continued in use despite its breakage.
