Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy hooked tag of probable 16th or 17th century date.
The plate is of an openwork design and has vertical outer sides and a rectangular frame hanger at the top. The central decorative element comprises three trefoil-shaped voids, the two separating columns terminating in tri-lobate finials. Below the trefoil-shaped voids is a horizontal bar and this gives way below to an inverted triangular-shaped section, with four circular voids, and moulded lobes along the edges. A moulded collar marks the top of the now-missing hook section.
The object measures 22.5mm long, 14.5mm wide and 1.7mm thick. The weight is 1.62g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
