Title
Harness pendant
Description
English: A cast copper alloy shield-shaped harness pendant. The suspension loop is broken; the artefact is in poor-fair condition. The pendant is U-shaped, with an integrally cast design. The surface is corroded. Most of the enamel appears to survive. The design consists of parallel lines running diagonally from top left to bottom right. These are striped, alternately red and bare metal which was presumably once gilded; there are four red stripes. Szymanski states that the alternate stripes are blue, but this does not seem to be the case in the photograph. Around the edge is a border. In the upper left corner is a blue quadrant, with its own bare metal border. Within this quadrant are five bare metal dots. This artefact dates to the 13th or 14th century. This artefact is very similar to YORYM-0682D7, which I. Szymanski has identified as a Spanish piece.
