Each arm has a semi-circular shaped lug, each one has a double incised line across its inner straight edge. Behind the head plate are two semi-circular suspension lugs with iron staining in between. The bow is curved and decorated with a band of two incised lines at the top and bottom with a vertical band running down the centre and joining to each horizontal band.
