Description: | A cast copper alloy hooked tag of early sixteenth century date. The hooked tag measures 37mm by 13mm and has an oval plate with a trapezoidal hook at one end and a sharp backward curving hook at the other. The convex front is moulded with a Renaissance-style female bust, facing left. A very similar dress hook from Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, is recorded on the Portable Antiquities Scheme database (SOMDOR-EF8898) and features in the PAS Annual Report for 2006 (pp. 99-100). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
