Description: | A cast copper alloy dress hook, dating to AD 1500 - 1600. The body of the dress hook is scallop shell shape (the sign of St.James) The hook has a narrow bar, which would suggest it was attached to a braid or ribbon rather than leather. The hook at the other end is bent in on itself with a pointed, tip end. The reverse is concave in shape, and hollow. | 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: | 1400
