Description
English: A Post Medieval copper alloy hooked tag - dress hook (late 16th century). The dress hook has a rectangular slot at one end and a hook at the other end with moulded openwork decoration in between. The hook has a rectangular cross-section. The moulded decoration on the body comprises a central berry-like motif in a V-shaped moulding with open-work loops to each side.

Dimensions: length: 34.59mm; width: 17.02mm; thickness: 2.00mm; weight: 2.91g.
