Description: | Medieval or post medieval copper alloy mount, 54mm long, 18mm wide and 4mm thick. The object is in fair condition with a brown patina and weighs 7.21grams. The object consists of two sub-circular plates which are joined together by a small rectangular plate. The outer edge of one terminates in a spherical knop, whilst the other has a circular sectioned shaft emerging from it, which has snapped. Each plate has a series of protruding triangles forming a border and has a circular hole. The one nearest the shaft is centrally placed whilst the other hole is just under the knop. The surface of the plates are decorated with a raised geometric linear pattern, which is slightly different on each one. The object is probably part of a book clasp?
