Description: | A cast copper alloy bar mount dating from about the 13th Century and attached to a copper alloy sheet by two rivets. The mount has a circular central lobe with projecting arms which terminate in a lobe at either end. The central lobe is decorated with vertical incised lines. The terminal lobes have central perforations and the rivets are still intact. The rivets attach the mount to a sub-triangular copper alloy sheet. At the reverse a small area of another copper alloy sheet remains, between which is some thickly weaved cream coloured textile. The mount has a dark green patina, while the copper alloy sheet is light green. A parallel Egan and Pritchard's Dress Accessories (1991), page 214, figure 134, number 1161. Similar examples may be found on this database at: NCL-6314C5 and DENO-606026.
