Description: | Non-functional. "H" monogram on bit., Ornate ceremonial key, 17th century.
Circular bow contains intricate s-scrolls around what appears to be a central monogram of interlocking 'A' and 'M' or 'V'. Cubic hollow ferrule sits atop a horizontally grooved shank of varying thickness.
Pin is relatively plain but thicker than the shank and has a balled end cut with more grooves like the shank. The bit is large and contains a monogrammed 'H' and possibly a 'T'.
There is some discolouration of the iron, particularly between the grooves and inside the hollow ferule ornament.,
