Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Published
Fragment of a copper alloy frame of Medieval date. This fragment is likely to be from decorative binding attached to some form of leather container, possibly a purse, box or satchel. The fragment is a rounded 'V' shape in profile, which becomes narrower from one end to the other. One exterior surface (the thicker surface) is decorated with a double inscribed chevron design. The thinner interior surface contains a perforation, presumably in order to stitch the frame to the leather container. There may have been a further larger perforation where the fragment has broken.
