Description: | The shape of the mount in plan is circular with a design on the upper surface. The reverse is flat with a central protrusion. This protrusion is sub-circular in section and tapers as it travels away from the circular body. The protrusion is angle at 90ยบ from the circular base. The tip of the protrusion is missing and the break appears old. The design on the upper surface is a point quatrefoil. Each 'petal' is a cell filled by a red enamel. The red enamel is incomplete in small areas. At the centre is small circular cell filled with a blue enamel. The field which surrounds the quatrefoil has a dark green enamel which fills the cell. The border of the design is the lip of the field cell. The item has a heavy patination which is a light green/brown colour.
