Description: | Copper-alloy mount in the form of a stylised human head with upstanding hair. The face of the mount is quite crude, with slight depressions for eyes and a general rise for the nose. The mouth is formed by a crude slit. The reverse of the mount is plain apart from a copper-alloy rivet. The object is 15 mm long and 13 mm wide. A similar form of mount, but depicting a woman's head is known from a 15th century context at Swan Lane, London (Egan & Pritchard 1991, 202 no. 1092 fig. 127).
