Title
Anglo-Saxon mount
Description
English: Late 8th century gilt copper alloy chip carved lozenge shaped fitting. The object has a pierced loop at either end, suggesting that it is a linking section from a triple pin set. In the centre of the face there is an iron rivet, and on the reverse of the object is an extensive patch of iron corrosion. This suggests that at the end of the objects lift as a linking section it was reused as some kind of mount. Secondary attachments like this are relatively common on Middle Saxon metalwork.
