Description: | Cast copper alloy dress hook dating from the post-medieval period, that is c. AD1500-1700. The dress hook is incomplete: the hook is missing. The hook was decorated with openwork and moulded floral decoration: There are five circular perforations towards the hook end of the object and three quatrefoil-shaped perforations in the centre. Around the perforations are moulded leaves and possibly small fleur-de-lis mouldings. The reverse is plain.This is of Read's Early post-medieval Class E, Type 2 and is comparable to Read (2008, 89; ref. 305).
