Cast cu-alloy medieval harness pendant dating from the 14th/15th century. The pendant is sixfoil-shaped with a suspension loop at the top. It is very likely that it was the central part of a two-piece harness pendant, similar to SF-4C12C3, but not as elaborately decorated. No traces of enamel or any kind of moulded decorated remain on obverse or reverse.

Medieval copper alloy shield shaped heraldic harness pendant. It is a Type I as classified by Ward Perkins. The pendant was hung by the now incomplete and integral sub-circular suspension loop set at 90° to the main body of the pendant. The outer face of the pendant is decorated with a diagonally hatched 'gules fretty' with labels over.

Extremely worn enamelled cast copper alloy harness pendant dating from the medieval period, that is c. 14th century AD. It is extremely worn and very thin. The decoration can only be seen in corrosion products on the obverse surface. The reverse was probably undecorated. The loop at the top is worn away except for a fine, thin spike. It is composed of a quatrefoil plate with angular projections bearing an armorial device, the details of which are lost to corrosion but it appears to have contained a crowned capital letter W. Pendants of this type are seen as fourteenth century (Grif…

An complete but very worn medieval copper alloy harness pendant, dating to the period c. AD 1340-1400. The harness pendant comprises a quatrefoil with pointed knops projecting in between the lobes. An integrally cast suspension loop projects from the centre of the upper lobe, set at 90 degrees to the body of the pendant.

Copper alloy harness pendant dating from the 13th-14th century. It is heavily worn and both surfaces are abraded, especially the obverse. It is lozenge-shaped with a broken suspension loop at the top and it was decorated with an enamelled zoomorphic design, perhaps heraldic, possibly a wyvern, dragon or stylised bird. The surviving enamel appears to be red and blue. Because of the heavily worn surfaces it is very difficult to suggest a family or origin for the pendant.
