Description: | Copper alloy sheet mount with four off-set perforations for rivets. The mount could possibly have been a side plate for a comb, part of a knife handle, or other furniture mount. The object is decorated with incised lines; there are two rows of squares with punched (but not perforated) centres. To either side of these rows are parallel lines; outside of the parallel lines are zig-zag marks, made with a small-bladed tool that has been struck, pivoted, and struck again, forming a distinctive mark that is heavier where the corner of the tool met the sheet.
