Description: | A cast copper-alloy strap mount dating to the 16th - 17th century. The mount is acorn shaped with a a short stalk extending from the base of the acorn. Two attachment spikes project from the reverse and are bent towards each other. These spikes would have allowed the mount to be attached to a leather strap, a fragment of which remains attached to the concave reverse of the object. The metal has a mid brownish-green patina and is fairly worn. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Clifford, Trista - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
