Description: | A cast copper alloy hooked mount. The mount is teardrop shaped, terminating in a collared loop at the widest end and a large, circular sectioned hook at the opposite end. The hook is set at right angles to the mount. The central teardrop shaped element has three facets. The reverse is concave. A large rivet remains below the hook on the reverse of the mount, which attaches a broken piece of sheet copper alloy. The copper alloy sheet is cut to the same shape as the mount. The breaks are worn. The object is worn with a patchy mid brown to yellowish green patina. The mount is post medieval in date.
