Anglo-Saxon Ornamental Metalwork 700-1100

Brooches; Finger Rings; Strap Ends; Stirrup Irons  plus much more.

The collection of Late Anglo-Saxon ornamental metalwork in the Ashmolean Museum is not large, but includes several pieces of outstanding importance

The Alfred Jewel is perhaps the best-known archaeological object in England, and the Museum is fortunate to house also the Minster Lovell Jewel, the only piece truly comparable to it. These are traditionally associated with King Alfred the Great, and together with the Abingdon sword provide much of the little surviving evidence about English art in one of its most formative periods, the late ninth and early tenth centuries.

Brooches; Finger Rings; Strap Ends; Stirrup Irons  plus much more

Line drawings throughout the text plus 20 photographic plates.

Price: £15.00 + £2.00 p&p U. K. (Ref: b0386)
