Description: | A complete copper-alloy probably medieval or early post medieval decorative mount. This mount is unusual as it is in the form of a Lions head in side profile. The lion has a mane, depicted by grooves, and a small rounded ear, the snout is short and the mouth open. Projecting from the centre of the undecorated back face of the mount is an integral spike, which was the means of attaching this mount to another object, such as box or item of furniture or possibly a strap. It measures 17.12mm in length and 15.58mm in width.
