Bronze strip decorated with interlace animals
Bronze decorative strip with incised Ringerike ornament. There
are three bronze rivets on the interior to fix the strip, though
what it attached to is not clear.
The decoration on the side, of long tendrils with three looped
interlaces, with cross-hatching between, is characteristic of the
Scandinavian Ringerike art style, and it probably dates to the mid-
or later 11th century when this style became prevalent in Britain
and Ireland.
