Description: | Copper alloy mount of medieval date, probably from a book. The mount is quatrefoil in shape, broadly D-shaped in section and has bevelled edges. Each arm terminals in a large trefoil with a central circular rivet hole and one with a rivet in place. The trefoils have moulded decoration in the form of a groove either side of the central lobe. The centre of the mount is domed (D. 31.00mm. Th. 3.12mm). The top of the dome is flattened and there is a moulded ridge and incised line around the base. The reverses of the arms are flat and the centre is concave. Dark green patina.
