Description: | A cast copper alloy dress hook. It has a hollow backed, dome fronted plate decorated with a bearded human face, three quarters facing, inside a raised framing border. At the one side is an integral trapeziodal attachment loop. Opposite this on the other side is a ridged collar at the junction of the plate and the hook. The hook is incomplete with only part of the tapering shank remaining. The orientation of the face indicates that the loop would have been on the left and the hook on the right.Similar to Read, B, 2008, Hooked-Clasps and Eyes, page 92, no. 326Date: Early Post Medieval - 16th to 17th centuryDimensions: 32.42 mm x 13.67 mm x 3.79 mmWeight: 1.99 g
