Description: | A cast copper alloy dress hook, dating to AD 1500 - 1600. The body of the dress hook is scallop shell shape (the sign of St.James) The hook has a narrow bar, which would suggest it was attached to a braid or ribbon rather than leather. The hook at the other end is bent in on itself with a pointed, tip end. The reverse is concave in shape, and hollow. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Simpson, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
