An enamelled copper-alloy mount, possibly from a hanging bowl. The mount is shovel-shaped, flat and decorated on one side only. The body contains a vertical row of four sub-rectangular frames of reserve metal, with an unclear wavey line at the base. To either side is a line with a triangular terminal. The recessed areas contain degraded enamel, now pale yellow-brown in colour but with traces of red. The reverse is undecorated and has traces of a shiney backing, perhaps an indication that it was soldered to a metal object such as a vessel.
