TREASURE CASE : 2004 T291
Description: An Anglo-Saxon gold cross-shaped pendant cut from a sheet of gold. One of the arms is perforated quite near the edge, most probably to allow its use as a pendant. It is of Greek form, with expanding arms of equal length, and the armpits are rounded. It is totally plain and undecorated on both sides, and slightly convex on the 'good side' (the back shows some displaced metal near the cut hole). There are some signs of wear.
Dimensions: Length and width 18mm, weight 1.7g.
Discussion: The cross is difficult to date exactly due to its …

TREASURE CASE : 1998 T63.
Anglo-Saxon pectoral cross pendant made from gold cloisonné work inlaid with garnets. 58 of the 95 original garnets now remain, and through X-ray diffraction it has been shown that the garnets are sited on a bed of calcium carbonate; this is a common technique in Anglo-Saxon jewellery manufacture. It is likely to date from the first half of the 7th century (see below) and is thus a very early example of a pectoral cross.
Angela Care-Evans contributed the following report:

TREASURE CASE : 2016 T327.
An incomplete early medieval gold pendant. The pendant is made from a crescent-shaped sheet of gold comprising a central, elongated plate flanked by birds' heads. The birds' long beaks curve sharply around to join the lower edge of the plate under their heads, creating an open-work circle on each side. The beaks are joined at the bottom by a narrow strip of gold, now dislodged from one terminal and bent, which creates a sub-triangular open-work void in the centre of the pendant.
The front of the pendant is decorated with applied filigree and granu…
