Description: | This post medieval copper alloy object in the form of an anthropomorphic mask has the look of a Bellarmine, or perhaps a Turks Head in style. The white markings on the surface may be paint residue. Under a magnifying glass, there is some evidence of gilding, thus the object might be considered as a possible furniture, or vessel mount.The object is cast and shows signs of being broken along the right hand side of the face. There are no obvious fixing attachments evident.
