Description: | Post Medieval cast copper alloy mount in the form of a flat openwork lozenge. The inner and outer edges are straight but bevelled with a flat front and back. There is a recessed band within which is a line of raised pellets running around all four sides of the frame in the cnetre of the front. There are traces of gilding on the front. There are two integral attachment spikes on the plain back, one near each acute corner. Both are broken and worn with only stubs remaining. The mount is 30.1mm by 21.0mm and 4.9mm thick including the spikes, 1.8mm excluding. It weighs 3.04 grams.It appears similar to many other decorative mounts of the 17th to possible 18th centuries. In particular SOM-66143B on this database from West Somerset is similar as is PAS-5B4E02 form Oxfordshire.
