Lot 1177

1255-1274 AD. A heater-shaped bronze pendant with pierced lug above, quartered arms with a castle on a red enamel field in top-left and bottom-right, gilded field with reserved red lion to the other quarters; blazoned 'Quarterly, 1st and 4th, Gules a castle Or, 2nd and 3rd, Argent a lion rampant', the arms of Eleanor of Castille. Found Exton, Rutland, UK, early 1990s. See Ashley, S. Medieval Armorial Horse Furniture in Norfolk, East Anglian Archaeology 101, Dereham, 2002, for type. Eleanor (1241-1290) was the daughter of King Ferdinand III of Castile and his wide, Joan of Ponthieu. She was married to King Edward I in 1254 after a previous engagement to Theobald II of Navarre which was abandoned for political reasons. Eleanor actively supported Edward in his conflict with the leading barons, fielded archers from her native Ponthieu in France and retained control of Windsor Castle for the king. Edward was captured at the Battle of Lewes and held prisoner while Eleanor was confined at Westminster Palace. Once Edward's forces defeated the barons' army at the Battle of Evesham in 1265, the king began reforming the structure of government. The king and his consort took part in the Eighth Crusade in 1270, but achieved little of military significance. Her arms were displayed alongside those of Edward, divided per pale, after the couple's return in August 1274. Therefore the shield probably dates from the period after Eleanor's arrival in England in 1255 and before she became Queen Consort in 1274. 18 grams, 49mm (2"). [No Reserve] Fine condition.
