Description: | Post medieval cast copper alloy asymmetrical belt mount with two integral pointed lugs dating from the 17th century. Much of the original decoration may be masked through corrosion. However, the mount has a small trefoil knop at one end and a beaded knop at the other. The central body of the mount is 'tear-drop' shaped. One of the lugs has broken at the base. The mount is 29.73mm long, 16.24mm wide, 1.48mm thick and weighs 2.65g. A good parallel for this mount can be seen in Read's 'Metal Artefacts of Antiquity' (Read, 2001, 34, no.287). | 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: | 1600
