13th-14th century AD. A substantial bronze quatrefoil harness pendant with radiating spurs to the rim, integral suspension lug; each lobe with reserved foliage ornament; the shield of Iberian type with orle of saltires, the arms quartered 1 and 4 a lion statant, 2 and 3 three fish naiant. 28 grams, 60mm (2 1/4"). Property of a London gentleman; previously by descent from Seymour de Ricci (1881-1942); formerly in the Carl Dreyfus collection; by descent from his father Gustave Dreyfus (1837-1914"). The rounded lower edge of the shield and the border (orle) suggest that the heraldry is Iberian, probably Spanish. Fine condition.
