Title
Wrist clasp
Description
English: A complete copper-alloy decorative bar from a sleeve or wrist clasp. This bar is rectangular in shape measuring 37mm in length, 7mm in width and 3.5mm in thickness. The front face of this bar is decorated with five transverse bands, 6mm by 6mm in size, three are plain and arranged alternately with the other two, which are decorated with transverse grooves. The front face is slightly convex and the back face flat. The back face has traces of solder on it where it would have originally been attached to a plate, which would have been the means of attaching the clasp to the garment. This clasp bar is of Hine's form B13a and is late 5th or 6th century in date (Hines 1993, 49-50, fig 94).
