Description: | A Medieval (1250-1450) copper alloy purse hanger or arched pendent mount measuring 38.46x10.56x1.49mm and weighing 1.4g. The hanger is flat and smooth on one face and moulded on the other to give a semi-circular, raised cross section. It has a central curved loop flanked by two smaller loops with a narrow decorative bar in low relief between the central loop and smaller loops. One of the narrowed end terminals is still present although the other has broken off. Ref: See "Meols", pages 125-127 (illustrated on plate 21, page 126) for similar purse suspenders. See also Egan and Pritchard, pages 219-224, especially object 1198, illustrated on page 223.
