A short stretch of the rim is broken off, but the rest is grozed. A very thick self-colour trail was applied some way below the rim and overlapped itself at the end of its circuit before being indented. Below this another thick trail was applied horizontally, also overlapping itself and being drawn down at intervals, forming eight arcades. Other thick trails were applied vertically, being pressed flat on the low points of the arcades and continuing to the point where they melted in the reheating of the tip.

481952,2-5.1, Fig. 8Horn, eight fragments of a green-brown drinking horn, much of the middle part missing, but the complete length is certain as the complete inner profile remains. The horn is slightly twisted and ends in a point. The rim is straight and grozed. Below the rim is a thick horizontal self-colour trail indented at intervals. Below this another thick trail was dropped on and overlapped its beginning, and this trail was then hooked down to form arcades. Seven thick trails were then laid from the lower points of the arcades towards the tip, these trails were flattened where they joined the arcades and melted in towards the tip. The tip is solid for a length of 65mm and is dented at one side, presumably by the tool used to produce the twist. Bubbles and some inclusions, glossy.Max.

Claw beakers571970,4-6.1675, Fig. 10Claw beaker, light green, a definite colour because of the good quality and thickness of the glass. Unsmoothed rim, cupped, broken off and partly ground flat. Tall body with vertical walls curving in to a narrow curved base slightly off-centre. A separate foot with a smoothed edge is attached. All the work on the main body was carried out on the blow-pipe. First a framework was laid out for the design, a self-colour trail was dropped on below the rim, turned once, then continued 15mm downwards to take a parallel course. In between a trail was applied as a zigzag. Another single trail was applied horizontally about 35mm above the join with the foot. A single trail was then dropped on the lower side of the zigzag border at each of four quarter points, taken vertically down to the lower trail of the frame and indented, then returned over itself without indentation and finished in an outward-curled shepherd’s crook ring. Four short claws were then applied in a row in the lower parts of these four fields, fully blown and drawn a short distance just outside the frame. Four similar claws were applied above these, drawn a short distance and the lower ends fastened on top of the lower claws. A trail was then dropped on the top of each of the top claws, started in a loop, continued over both the upper and lower claw and indented. Bubbles very few and small, brown streaking in six of the claws, colour clear and surface glossy.

The shape of the body is deformed by the application of the claws, except near the base where the straight profile shows it to have been a cone beaker form. The foot is folded with a hollow at the edge and pushed in deeply with a round-ended tool, diam. 8mm. A blue trail containing many impurities was dropped on and turned up to the rim 20 times. Another blue trail was applied above the foot and turned downwards towards it 12 times. Next, the bottom row of five claws was applied, partly overlying the top of the blue trail zone and taking up the entire

They were drawn down to the foot and a vertical indented self-colour trail was laid along the middle of each, continuing to below the foot but not interfering with the stability of the vessel. The claws are very large, three in the bottom row having a max. diam. of 45mm. The top row of five claws was then applied and a blue vertical trail was laid down the middle of each and indented. Within the kicked base are the remains of tubular punty glass, external diam. 22–7mm, internal diam. 10–14mm. The mid-blue trails on the upper row of claws are thick and opaque, while the fine, blue horizontal trails, although probably of the same glass, are translucent. Small bubbles, few impurities, some striation and interior staining. The vessel is complete, but a long crack extends from the bottom of one of the top row of claws down across two of the lower row of claws. The beaker is thick and heavy, th. of rim 5mm.

591336a.’70, Fig. 10Claw beaker fragments, a good shade of light blue-green, 11 fragments of the middle part and foot, some of which join and allow an almost complete reconstruction except for the rim. A folded foot with a kick formed by a pointed tool is chipped on one side by the removal of the punty, diam. 38mm. There are the remains of five or six claws, all large and fully blown, but short and showing deep drawing marks. One claw was applied just above a row of horizontal trails 25mm deep, and its tail attached in a plain zone below. This represents an original lower row of four claws, and the upper row of four claws was applied completely in the plain zone. Above this was another zone of horizontal trails. The stemmed beaker form with full claws finishing well above the foot denotes Evison’s 1982 type 2b.

Inset in the surface is a gold grille, probably cut from sheet metal, with an outer frame and an interlaced design of two serpents, their heads in opposing corners and the curving line bodies looping across each other to terminate in the other two corners. A silver stud represents an eye in each of the animal heads and part of the gold grille is missing, leaving shallow channels in the surface of the glass. Three sides are L. 19mm but the fourth is 20mm, i.e. a rhomboid shape, which suggests suitability for inlay into a circular object such as a paten or chalice foot.

Appendix 3 Analyses of the metal components of a silver cross pendant from Gravesend by Duncan R. Hook, The British MuseumThe silver cross pendant from Gravesend (cat. no. 217, Colour Pl. 8) was analysed using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) at an area on the reverse which had been gently cleaned, using equipment and procedures described by Cowell (1998). The following result was obtained:

Lab no. Ag% Cu% Au% Pb% Zn% Sn% Bi%

6984-1-X 85.6 10.5 1.1 1.4 0.6 0.9 <0.1

< denotes less than value quoted (i.e. the detection limit). The analysis has a relative precision (a measure of reproducibility) of c. ±1% for silver, c. ±10% for copper and c. ±30% for the remaining elements. The accuracy of the analysis should be of a similar order, providing the cross does not suffer from severe heterogeneity.

The XRF analysis shows that the Gravesend cross is primarily of silver, with copper present as the major alloying component. The presence of small amounts of zinc and tin indicates that it is likely that the silver had been alloyed with a copper-zinc-tin ternary alloy rather than pure copper. Some of the lead present in the cross will also have been introduced as a component of the copper alloy, although some will have originated from the original silver-bearing ores.

The gold content is relatively high for ancient silver – some of the gold is likely to have been derived from the original silver ore, although some may have resulted from the inclusion of scrap gilded metal in the melt.

The wire surround of the glass setting of the Gravesend cross was also analysed qualitatively using XRF, which indicated its composition to be a low-tin bronze which had been mercury gilded.
