Description: | This dress fastening was cast in one piece with two iron rivets visible on the outer surface of the plate. The triangular plate appears to be broken at the end since no aperture exists for attaching the fastening to the garment on one side. The hook may have been used to connect with a chain to keep loose garments together (Egan 2005, page 42) This hook now appears green but the rivets have oxidised to a red brown colour | 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
