Description: | A cast copper alloy gilded mount or book fitting. The mount is formed from a piece of copper alloy, which is rectangular at one end and bent back on itself to form a hook. At the opposite end, the mount terminates with a circular element with a central rivet hole, and a large elongated terminal knop. Between these two elements is a collared constriction. The rivet is missing. Areas of gilding remain around the rivet hole. The object is worn with a dark green patina. It is medieval to post medieval in date.
