Description: | Possible Medieval book mount: sheet, now distorted and in two pieces, angled to a truncated point at one end, straight at the other but with a short central projection. Openwork decoration consists of two quatrefoils (14mm across), both within a circle of drilled holes with additional single holes between each foil, and of two 5mm diameter round holes in the centre. Near the pointed end a 2mm diameter hole and behind that a rivet, which does not extend far beyond the surfaces of the sheet. Immediately behind that, on the face from which the drilled holes were formed, and presumably the front face, a transverse row of blind drilled holes. Length c.60mm. Width 31.5mm. Thickness 0.5mm. No parallel noted. Perhaps 15th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bales, Ellen - Norfolk Museums and Archaeology Service | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
