Description: | A cast copper alloy mount. The mount is shaped like a six-pointed star, with a central boss. The boss is decorated with incised lines, in a spiral formation, with a central pellet. The reverse is undecorated. On the reverse two spikes survive which would have held the mount onto either wood or leather. The mount appears to be complete. Much of the artefacts original surface has been lost. The metal is a mid reddish-brown colour. This mount probably dates from the post medieval period, circa 1500-1850. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
