Description: | Cast copper alloy dress hook dating from the post-medieval period, that is c. AD1500-1700. The dress hook is largely complete with only the hook itself missing. The main body was decorated with moulded and openwork decoration: there is a moulded heart within a circular border, and two moulded collars separating the body and hook. There is a large rectangular opening at the opposing side, for sewing the dress hook to the garment/attachment.
