Description: | Circular mount of the type sometimes known as a 'bell-shaped stud'. It consists of a disc 20 mm in diameter and about 3 mm thick; one face then flares out to 26 mm in diameter, forming a concave face with a circular boss in the centre decorated with a central depression. The other face of the disc has the remains of a square-section iron attachment shank. The total thickness is 12 mm. Although these mounts seem to be most often used on furniture (as decorative mounts or functional knobs) they have also been found used on related items such as doors and boxes. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 43
