Description: | An incomplete and corroded Medieval cast copper alloy forked spacer from a composite strap end. The terminal end is comprised of a debased acorn knop centrally attached to an angular shoulder that forks into two tapering arms, one along either side, with a U-shaped gap between them. Both arms terminate in old breaks. Similar spacers are shown in Egan; Dress Accessories (2002); p144 which are dated by ceramic association to 1250-1450 AD.
