Description: | Medieval copper alloy mount measuring 54.22mm in length, 40.57mm in width, 10.49mm in thickness and weighing 53.3g. The object is sub-circular in plan with a approx. 10mm shaft extending outwards before ending in an old breakage point. The object is slighting curved in profile, with the peak of the curve being the middle of the round section, which is also the thickest. The convex surface of the fixture is very rough, while the concave side is much smoother although it has a number of light scratches on its surface.The mount may be a vessel escutcheon, with the concave face a likely location for solder for attachment to a vessel.
