Sarre Anglo-Saxon Cemetery - Grave 126

To Sarre Cemetery Introduction

GRAVE 126 - A very narrow grave, only eighteen inches wide.
   Finds  A remarkable bronze ornament, of a very elegant and, I believe, an unique pattern (Plate VI., Fig. 9). It is of a diamond shape, measuring an inch and a half by an inch and a quarter, and bears at its angles four ivory bosses, each pierced in the centre with a dot of lapis-lazuli .At its back are four bronze loops to fix it to the belt or dress. It is very substantially made, and in very perfect condition.
