Description: | Incomplete Medieval earscoop / tweezers of Dress Accessories Type I. The scoop is intact at one end; in the middle, more than half of a reinforcement band around the mid shank is present (and decorated with three obliquely engraved lines). This band is soldered in place between the double shaft of the tweezers and the single shaft of the earscoop, and thus is different in function to the sliding rings of page-holders. The tweezers are represented by stubs only. Surviving length 34mm. Cf. Egan and Pritchard 1991, no.1773. 14th century.
