Title
A complete Early Post Medieval copper alloy dress hook with a white metal coating (1500-1600 AD).
Description
English: A complete Early Post Medieval copper alloy dress hook with a white metal coating (1500-1600 AD). The artefact consists of the eye-section of a hook and eye clothes fastening. It has been cast in one piece with moulded decoration on the outer face. The decoration takes the form of a central four-petalled flower on a field of tendrils and foliate with a small three-petalled flower in each quarter. The plate is round in plan with two attachment holes pierced from the outside face and a projecting debased trefoil knop with a central attachment hole. At the opposite edge of the dress hook is the rectangular eyelet section of the clasp. This is slightly recessed from the raised moulded section. The entire fastening has been coated with a white metal. It is very similar to a base metal example in Read (2008, 180), ref. 686, which is recorded on the Portable Antiquities Scheme databse as CORN-914120

Dimensions: length: 37.56mm; width: 21.23mm; thickness: 2.24mm; weight: 5.37g.
