Dress hook
Description
English:

Cast copper alloy dress hook dating to the Early Medieval period. The object is a one-piece sheet copper alloy dress hook. The upper face is decorated with three small drilled-holes each of which is within an annulet. At the top of the object two drilled attachment holes are within an annulet. The outer frame of the object is decorated by dividing into two ornamental angular knops. The hook is rearward facing and contains a small incision resulting in a forked terminal. The rear of the object is undecorated. The upper face and hook have been filed. It has a mid-green patina and is in good condition. The dress hook can be classified as Read's Early Medieval Class G, Type 1. A similar example is no.142, p35, Read, (2008).
