Description: | A copper-alloy trefoil mount possibly from a book cover, of medieval date. This mount is cast and three-armed with a central rounded boss which has a hollow back face and a flat terminal. It measures 25mm by 20mm in size and the boss is 7mm in height. Each of the flat projecting arms are evenly spaced and terminate in three triangular protrusions, in the centre of the terminal of each arm there is a circular rivet hole, two of which have the remains of an iron rivet within them.
This mount is very similar to a non-figurative mount found in London (Egan and Pritchard 1991, 204, fig 128, no 1099). | 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: | 1300
