TREASURE CASE: 2010 T513.<\/p>
\n<\/p>\n\n
A complete silver-gilt dress fastener of post-medieval date. The dress fastener is formed from two hemispheres joined to form a hollow spherical ball with a projecting circular attachment loop. The fastener is decorated with an openwork design and multiple pellets arranged in concentric circles radiating from a central point. A double banded filigree \"rope-work\" collar is present where the two hemispheres join. A further two bands of filigree are present on each hemisphere from which some of the pellets project.
\nFrom one hemisphere a centrally placed attachment loop projects with a narrow D-shaped section.
\nTraces of gilding survive on the decoration and the loop. Much of the openwork design is now infilled with soil remnants from its deposition.<\/p>
\n<\/p>\n\n
\nDiscussion: A similar example can be seen on the PAS database: IOW-CDBEA4, Treasure case 2009 T561.In terms of age and as the object contains a minimum of 10% precious metal it qualifies as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996.<\/p>
