Description: | Sheet copper alloy hooked pendant suspension mount with two separate iron rivets which remain in the mount. The mount is asymmetrical with three projections but one side is straight where a fourth projection may have worn away.
The pendant which would have hung from the hook is missing. The mount was probably used as a sword belt fitting.
Read (1998) illustrates similar examples on page 114, Nos.720-722, which are dated from the 16th century. | 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: | 1500
