Description: | a Post-Medieval copper alloy hooked mount. One terminal is trilobate, 20.87mm in width. The mount is approximately triangular, shaped with the two sides mirroring each other in outline and tapering toward the hooked terminal, with knops protruding before the curved hook extension. The surface of the mount is decorated with curvilinear patterns, including a heart in the centre containing a lis. On either side of this are the remains of two rivet holes, c.7.7mm in diameter, which can be determined amidst two patches of corrosion The hook ressembles a serpent with rearward facing head and open mouth. The mount is 47.63mm in length and is 2mm thick, weighing 9.28g. A similar example is illustrated in Read, 1995, no.717, and dates to the sixteenth century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Carr, Jane - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
