Description: | An incomplete copper alloy Post-Medieval dress fastener (c. 1500 - 1800). The dress fastener consists of a circular flat plate with two circular attachment lobes. The plate is worn and there is no visible decoration remaining on either side of the plate. The hook which would have formerly extended from the lower portion of the plate has broken off and only a narrow rectangular protrustion remains. There is an oval perforation on the plate, however this appears to be the result of potential damage, rather than an intentional design aspect.The dress fastener measures 15.0 mm in length, 14.0 mm wide, 1.1 mm thick and weighs 1.06 g.
