Description: | A cast copper alloy mount, with traces of gilding surviving on the surface.
The mount comprises a main triangular plate. Cast integrally to the top and bottom of the mount is a circular knop.
The front surface is undecorated. The reverse is flat.
Two attachment spikes have been attached to the reverse.
The metal is a mid greenish-brown colour. The metal is worn and pitted. It probably dates from the medieval to post-medieval period. This mount was probably used to decorate leather. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
