English: Hollow, ovoid-shaped fitting made of silver with incised decorations highlighted in gold leaf and niello. On the inside there is a 20mm long chamfered pin, now bent, which runs between the narrow sides and is held in place by two rivets, set in a broad rim. It probably functioned as a cap covering the end of a wooden implement or handle. The decoration is directional. On the top of the object, seen from the broader base of the ovoid, there is a stylised vase on a square base from which sprout three main elongated leaves. Within these, as well as on the body of the vase, there is a further incision line following the contour. Additional leaves and five round buds, some with added minute punched spots, complete the tree-of-life design. Four bunches of leaves also decorate the sides of the object, but on these only little remains of the original gold highlights and niello filling. The piece dates to the 9th century AD.
