Description: | Silver-plated copper alloy furniture escutcheon with openwork decoration in the form of a seven-petalled flower alternating with twisted foliage. The back of the boss has the base of a central iron rivet or screw, with some of the screw thread remaining, which would have attached the escutcheon to a wooden drawer or cupboard door.Bailey (1993) illustrates a similar escutcheon with an openwork daisy pattern and threaded moulding on the reverse, from a drawer or door, on page 19, No.27, which is dated from the mid-18th to the early 19th century, and a gilded brass escutcheon plate with a leaf and daisy design on page 21, No.65, which is dated from the 18th century.
