Description: | Copper alloy pendent mount. Cast rectangular plate with a thinner tab with a rhomboid end folded back and with a rivet of diameter 3mm passing through the end to meet the back of the rectangular plate. A cast ring of diameter 16.3mm is retained by a loop formed by the bent part of the plate. Examples from London are considered to have served as purse hangers, and are dated to the period 1270-1350 - which is earlier than the date ascribed to the majority of purse fittings. Suggested date: Medieval, 1270-1350.Length (overall): 36mm, Width (plate): 14.8mm, Thickness (plate): 1.5mm, Weight: 8.23gms.
