Title |
Medieval : Silver Gilt Small Annular Brooch/Buckle or Mount |
||
Description |
English: A medieval silver mount or brooch. The object is formed of a quatrefoil frame, comprised of four lobes with incisions on each lobe to give the appearance of petals. One side of the lobes is flatter, with a straight edge, which could indicate the constriction for a pin, or could be due to wear. The reverse is flat, and the object is worn.
The quatrefoil design was a popular motif in medieval dress fittings and jewellery, and is seen on many examples of surviving brooches from the period. For examples of the quatrefoil in medieval brooches see, 2006 T386 (PAS-376815), NMS-73B556 and 2012-T221 (IOW-336352), although these are not comparable in style to 2013 T834. Although the object is very small, there are examples of brooches dating from the Middle Ages which are of comparable size and as such were likely decorative rather than used to function as a brooch. Dimensions: Height: 8.6mm, Width: 8.8mm, Depth: 1.44mm, Weight: 0.4g In terms of age and as the object contains a minimum of 10% precious metal it qualifies as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996.
