Description: Pre-conservation image taken June 2018 of an ornamented silver pectoral cross with wire chain. The cross is decorated with what appears to be gilding and niello, each arm ornamented with a motif and there appears to be an ornamentation missing from the centre. A chain of coiled silver wire is wrapped around the arms. The cross is from the Viking age Galloway Hoard.
