Description: | A worn and pitted copper alloy hook, possibly for clothing but more likely for another function. The hook has a rounded loop at the top and a complete forward-facing hook at the bottom. Between the hook and the loop is a circular rivet hole. No parallels could be found in the usual literature, including Read's (2008) corpus on hooked tags and clasps. It may have been mounted on a small chest or box of possibly a harness. Post-medieval to modern in date.
