An incomplete or fragmentary copper-alloy mount of probable medieval to post-medieval date. The mount is flat and has stepped long edges formed of conjoined trapezoids that decrease in size: three such trapezoids survive to form the present object. The smallest trapezoid forms the terminal of the object and is bifurcated at its own terminal. It is also covered in an applied thin white metal sheet, which extends, abraded, into the adjacent trapezoid. On the reverse, at the terminal, is an integral rivet. The object has been curved in profile, and has been bent downwards in particu…

An incomplete copper-alloy plate, presumably from a strap, of probable medieval date. The plate is broadly rectangular, rounded at the surviving corners, having been abraded, and broken at the other short end where it has been bent upwards slightly as a result of old damage. The front is quite heavily scratched but appears to be undecorated. At the extant corners two integral rivets are present on the reverse. These have hammering marks between them. The object generally has a brown patina. It measures 27.7mm long by 13.5mm wide by 2.1mm thick; it weighs 4.53g

Treasure case 2014 T229: Acquired by Museum of Somerset A silver gilt Medieval mount in the form of the Holy Rood. The piece is a plain cross bearing the haloed figure of Christ crucified. Two standing figures flank the cross, representing Mary on Christ's left, and John the Evangelist on his right (as we view it). A scrolled panel across the top of the cross probably bore the legend INRI (Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudiorum (Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews)) but this is now worn. The base of the cross and the figures of Mary and John stand on a base with a flat top and wide pyramidal…

A broken and incomplete figurative copper-alloy mount of medieval date (c. 12th/13th century AD). The mount would probably have depicted a saint full length, by reference to similar items discussed below; only the upper half of the torso and the head survive. The figure is shown facing holding a book in their right hand, through which a rivet hole has been drilled. An old break has occurred below this, largely diagonal, but also having removed some of the right arm. The body of the object is sub-rectangular and convex. The head above is moulded and set forward of the mount. A nose and…
