Description: | Lozenge shaped copper alloy mount, probably a belt mount. The Mount has a circular depression in the centre (diameter 13 mm). In the centre of this depression is a circular hole (diameter 5 mm). This gives the mount the appearance of an eye. A faint ring around the hole on the reverse of the object suggests that an intaglio was once attached to the mount. The size and shape of the mount is similar to that described as a celtic 'eye' form mount in Benet's Artefacts of England and the United Kingdom (2000).
