Description: | Post medieval mount; cast copper alloy bar mount of probable 17th century date. The mount is in the form of a small bar with a trilobed terminal on either end. The terminals are decorated with incised lines along each lobe, giving a floral impression. The mount has two long, pointed attachment pins on the back, curved inwards. It has been suggested that mounts with these double, pointed prongs are probably from horse harness (e.g. Hume, as quoted in Egan)
Length 24.9mm, width 9.0mm, thickness 14.1mm, weight 2.37g
