Description: | An incomplete post medieval copper alloy strap fitting with integral attachment lugs. The mount is sub triangular with symmetrical moulded decoration which is worn. The decoration resembles branches and flowers, and traces of gilding remain. One end of the mount has a trifoliate protrusion similar to a fleur de lis, underneath which are two circular holes. Inbetween these is a circular knop. The other end of the mount narrows in curved stages, and terminates in a triangular point. On the reverse there are two integral lugs, the ends of which have been broken and worn. The mount is a dark reddy brown colour. It measures 28.2mm in length, 18.3mm in width, and 1.7mm in thickness. The mount weighs 4.49g.
