County: Flintshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast copper alloy mount in the form of a human face with slit mouth, drilled eyes and a flattened nose. The face is in relief set on a backplate with an extant rivet to one side. The backplate forms a bi-furcating headgear with hollow panels that follow the outline of the headgear that probably once contained enamel. The back is hollow. It is likely that this is a vessel mount similar to those on the buckets found at the Late Iron Age cemetery at Aylesford, Kent.
