Description: | Copper alloy early post-medieval dress hook imitation made from one piece of sheet metal.Consists of 3 semi-spherical hollow domes connected by a central flat area. In the central piece is a circular perforation. Each dome is decorated with 3 sets of ring and dot decoration. The hole probably had a backplate with bar and hook rivetted on which has now broken off. It is also possible that this was an unfinished frontplate.A similar example made from lead, but not as complete can be seen at SOMDOR-01C437.
