Description: | Copper alloy mount. Curved strip with pointed ends and two rivets of head diameter 1.6mm, one towards each end. Worn. The curvature of the object might suggest its use to mend or reinforce a shoe heel, in which case a requirement to avoid striking sparks might have dictated the use of a non-ferrous material, or for some other indeterminate purpose. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1700.Length: 43.4mm, Width: 6.2mm, Thickness: 1.1mm, Weight: 1.55gms.
