Description: | a copper alloy Post-Medieval dress-hook. It is complete except for an attachment loop on the reverse. It is rectangular, in the form of a raised rectangular book or box. There is a single central boss within the raised 'book', and the surrounding rectangular backplate is decorated with protruding globular knops, four down each long side, and another at the base. The hook is complete and curves backwards, tapering to a point. The dress-hook measures 24.05mm in length, 11.53mm in width and weighs 2.68g. A dress-hook of similar design and decoration, but made of silver-gilt, was found at Chillesford - see Treasure Annual report 2004, no.277 (Treasure no. 2004T418). These objects date to the sixteenth century.
