Description: | A copper-alloy mount of probable 17th century date. This is a common form of post-medieval mount, with many examples recorded on the PAS database.The mount takes the form of a flower head, probably a rose. At the centre is a small circular moulding surrounded by five sub-crescentic petals. Around the outside are five larger petals and these are interspersed by five pointed projecting petals. On the flat reverse are two integral rivets, located one at the centre and one near the edge. The intact central rivet has been bent at a right-angle. All surfaces of the mount are coated with a layer of silvering or tinning.The mount measures 13.2mm in diameter, 5.5mm thick (including the rivets) and weighs 1.52g.
