Description: | A cast copper alloy dress-hook or hooked tag. The object consists of a main plate, formed of three openwork loops, knotted in a bow. Extending up from the bow is a rectangular loop. On the uprights of the loop, on either side there is a raised pellet.
Below the main plate extends a narrow hook, which bends back on itself. It is decorated on the front nearest to the bow with a knop. The hook survives intact.
The reverse is flat and undecorated. The surface is dark greenish-green. This artefact is late medieval to early post-medieval in date. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Taylor, Jeff | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
