Title
dress hook (back)
Description
English: Incomplete cast copper alloy dress hook fastener with the hook end having been bent straight and the loop end broken and missing. Two pointed projections are all that remain of the base of the attachment loop. The body of the fastener is circular in plan and domed in profile with a larger central raised pellet and six smaller pellets around it, representing a six-petalled flower, with six larger pellets alternating with these, as the larger petals, all within a border of smaller pellets.

Bailey (1992) illustrates a similar example on page 30, No.12, which is dated from the 16th century.

Read (2008) illustrates similar examples which are classified as Class E, Type 3, on page 96, Nos.349-350, which are dated to the early Post-medieval period.
