George Darragh, a man from East Belfast, has been convicted of assault causing actual bodily harm and possession of an offensive weapon.
The attack was sparked by an argument over loud music, during which he attacked his girlfriend by punching her in the face, grabbing her by the throat and pinning her against a wall, lifting her feet off the ground.
He also threw a piano stand at her and was observed to have thrown a garden fork at her, which narrowly missed hitting her in the neck.
The victim suffered a deviated nose, black eye, and other injuries, and has since experienced lasting issues such as difficulty swallowing and daily panic attacks.
Darragh, who expressed regret and apologized to the victim, has been ordered to prepare a pre-sentence report and an interim restraining order has been placed against him, with sentencing scheduled for September 22.
