Description: | Post medieval copper alloy hooked mount or dress-fastener, probably of 17th century date The fastener is complete (with a length of 45.0mm, a thickness of 2.4mm and a weight of 6.8g) and was secured by three separate pins through the terminal and near the base. The terminal is of trefoil form, while the body of the mount is oval (with a maximum width of 20.9mm). The forward-facing hook at the base has parallel sides (with a width of 6.8mm) and the end abuts the mount (producing a maximum depth of 4.8mm). The front is decorated with a floral-scroll design in cast relief and the rear is plain and flat. Traces of silvering or tinning is evident over much of the surface and elsewhere has a pale green to brown surface.
