Title
hook fastener
Description
English: Cast copper alloy clothes hook fastener with sharp-pointed hook. The asymmetrical quatrefoil openwork, consists of two sub-square-shaped loops and two crescent-shaped loops, below a rectangular loop and cross bar, which would have allowed the fastener to have been attached onto the garment. The decoration consists of punched annulets on the upper face of the fastener, around the edge of the openwork, and surrounding a central fleur blossoming out of two leaves or strands of foliage from the boss above the hook.
Bailey (2004) illustrates two comparable examples on page 96, Fig.12.17 and 12.21, which he dates to the 16th century.
