This print showcases the intricate details of "Silver fragments (silver)" by Anglo-Saxon, dating back to the 10th century. Housed in the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK, this historical artifact offers a glimpse into the rich heritage of Cuerdale. The image captures various elements within this remarkable hoard. From twisted and irregularly shaped silver fragments to bundles of wire and fused fine wires, each piece tells a unique story.

These items provide valuable insights into ancient craftsmanship and jewelry-making techniques.
