Item Details

Description

8th century AD. A thick triangular weight with gilt-bronze panel to the upper face, decorated in Insular Style; the lead weight roughly cast with lip to the upper edges; the panel triangular, displaying a serpentine creature with spiral shoulder and hip reserved against a field of chip-carved diaperwork. Published in Hammond, B. British Artefacts - volume 2: Middle Saxon and Viking, item 1.14-j. Found County Durham, UK. The weight of the block is 275 grams, equal to eleven øre of 25 grams.
