Description
English: Copper alloy hooked mount with a separate pendant fitting, dating to the 16th century. The mount is from a sword belt fitting. The hooked part has a circular sectioned hook with a globular terminal, at the top of the hook, the object widens out and flattens. It is broken here but would have been a larger plate of flat copper alloy with rivet holes (to be attached to the scabbard straps). Hooked inside the hook is a freely moving circular loop, again this is broken and would have been part of a plate with one or more suspension loops (to be fitted onto the belt). A similar example can be seen in Brian Reads book, ‘Metal Artefacts of Antiquity’, Fig.26, No.373. The sword belt fitting weighs 4g and measures 28mm in length and 15mm in width.
