Description: | Incomplete 15th/ 16th century silver gilt openwork hooked tag, missing the curl of its hook. It measures 26.8x18.5mm and weighs 5.16g. The object consists of a square c.18x18mm, 4.9mm high, closed on three sides and open on the fourth, presumably for a strap. The top face is openwork, the reverse face sheet metal with two 1mm diameter holes close to the open end, presumably for fixing the strap in place. The openwork decoration is not symmetrical and appears to be foliate. There is a knop at either open-end corner. The hook is 2.4mm in diameter, in section and the break is old. | 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: | 1401
