Title
Copper alloy Medieval harness fitting
Description
English: Copper alloy fragment of a late Medieval dress hook.

It is a composite type with a central circular plate and the double ended hook attached on the reverse by a central rivet. The hook piece is a long pointed oval with both ends missing so they only just protrude past the edges of the circular plate and the hooked parts have broken off. The front of the circular plate is decorated with three incised concentric circles.

Similar examples can be seen in Reads book on page 134-5 (2008).
