Description: | A post-medieval (1600-1700) copper-alloy openwork mount with integral attachment spikes, the tips of both of which are missing. The mount has a flat openwork plate, slightly convex in profile, with bevelled edges. In shape it is a piriform with a trefoil extending from the apex.. The side petals of the trefoil have circular indents in their centre and the central petal is elongated, echoing a fleur de lis. There is a projecting solid oval knop at the other end of the mount flanked by slight rounded triangular knops and a solid chevron across the openwork centre. To the reverse the two integral circular-sectioned spikes point inwards.The mount measures 32.4mm long, 14.3mm wide, 6.8mm deep and weighs 2.96g.
