Description: | A complete cast copper-alloy strap or belt mount or stud of Post-Medieval date. It has a rectangular plate with central groove on the front face, either side of which the plate is fluted. At each end are decorative terminals that are sub-triangular in form with central triangular perforations and trefoil shaped terminal ends. On the back face are two integrally cast cylindrical lugs or rivets, one now incomplete due to old breaks, the surviving example tapering to a sharp tip and folded at an angle of 90 degrees. The entire object measures 48.82mm in length, 15.38mm in width, 2.35mm in thickness and 6.16g in weight.This mount is from a strap or belt and is very similar to an example published by Read (1995: pp. 115, no. 743). It is of Post-Medieval date, c.16th-17th centuries AD. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
