Description: | Late or Early Post-Medieval cast silver dress-hook. It is composed of a lozenge-shaped plate cast in low relief, the outer edge showing 16 smaller circlets. There are 2-4 small knops surrounding each of the circlets (see image). The central flower which would have been attached with a rivet through the perforation in the centre is missing. The rivet, however, is still in place. It is kept in place by its split end on the reverse. On the obverse is displays a simple knop. Transverse bar and hook on reverse are still intact.
