Description: | A copper alloy mount, probably from furniture, dating from the 17th century. The mount is a flat plate of copper alloy. It is basically T shaped, but with a complex curvilinear outline. There is a small circular (rivet?) hole in the base of the stalk of the T, and larger rivet holes with worn edges in each end of the cross bar of the T. The front is decorated with incised or punched floral and foliage designs. It has a length of 68.9mm and a width of 47.2mm. It weighs 7.71g. The mount may be the backplate to a drop handle.
