A corroded and bent cast copper-alloy post-medieval sword-belt hanger/mount. This strap-fitting consists of a mount with three suspension loops from which a trio of hooked plates would have hung; in turn, the scabbard straps would have been attached to these plates. The mount features foliate decoration on its visible face. Such fittings are rarely found complete, rather elements or broken examples are far more common. However, an illustration of another complete sword-belt fitting can be found in Read (2001, 43; ref. 373). Such fittings 'proliferate in the 16th and 17th centuries' (G…
