Title |
Anglo-Saxon stirrup mount (drawing) |
||
Description |
English: Cast copper alloy stirrup-strap mount of Williams Class A, with decorative silver wire and niello inlay of Anglo-Scandinavian inspiration. The mount is very worn and the inlay only survives in patches. Below the apex rivet is a pendent lobe, while at the base a union knot probably links a pair of opposed spirals which are utilised by the pair of rivet holes. Centrally is a knot within a wide ribbon-like strip which may be the body of a snake-like beast whose head is otherwise worn away. A corroded iron rivet survives within the apex hole and obscures the decoration. One of the other iron rivets at the base of the mount has also survived and left surface corrosion, while the other is missing. On the back what appears to be wood grain, the significance of which is not clear, survives in iron corrosion products.
Williams (1997) illustrates a similar example from Hertfordshire on page 81, Fig.51, No.369, which is classified as a Class A mount. |
