CURATOR'S REPORT
15th - 17th Century Medieval silver mount.
Description
A late medieval or post-medieval mount, in the shape of a cockle shell. It has been distorted and is bent roughly in its centre, where there is a hole. The hole appears to be the result of damage rather than deliberate piercing. The mount is of a type applied to a variety of objects such as belts, boxes, book bindings. The symbol of the cockle shell is associated with the shrine of St James at Santiago de Compostela, but there is no evidence to suggest that this is a pilgrim souvenir.

Description:
A medieval silver mount, circular in shape, engraved with a crescent moon. The crescent is gilded, and may originally have been enamelled. A rivet hole is pierced through the mount; the rivet, now missing, may have been intended to represent the sun or a star. The mount was probably originally attached to a belt or strap.

A Medieval mount, consisting of the figure of a virgin martyr soldered on to a hollow, tubular fixing, closed at the bottom end by a solid oval plate. The top end is broken, and, close to the break, is a cut-out area clearly designed as part of a complex fixing arrangement. The figure of the saint carries in her right hand the palm of martyrdom; her left side is damaged, so that her iconographic attribute has probably been lost. The whole figure is very much worn, and lacks definition of drapery or physiognomy.
The mount is silver and dates from the fourteenth or fifteenth century.

The convex display face bears impressed or stamped motifs: a pair of elongated ovals with billeted borders, with pellets at either end and where they meet; corner motifs of inward-pointing arrows with three sub-triangular hatched stamps between each, all within linear borders. Outside these borders the corners of the plaque are crescentic, with sub-rectangular zones of hatched decoration between them, rendered with a stamp of a diagonal line with triangular or toothed ornament.

Silver gilt mount. Cast cruciform mount in the form of an equal armed cross with detail modelled in relief. A heart is set centrally on the cross, and the end of each arm bears a rhomboid with a central nail head on a quatrefoil setting, possibly intended to resemble a flower. The vertical division of the lobes of the heart is exaggerated, probably recalling the Sacred Heart of Jesus, or, taking the whole scheme together, the Five Wounds of Christ. A hole to one side of the heart appears to have served as a fixing point; another similar hole on the other side is blind. The use of silv…

Silver possible mount fragment. A short fragment from a strip with one straight edge and one indented edge, and cut at either end. Incised hand-cut decoration appears to be part of a frieze of schematically rendered vegetation. The thinness of the sheet metal is typical of scraps of later silver which became incorporated into rubbish despite the intrinsic value of the material. Where their forms are better understood, these objects often appear to be of Victorian date. In this case, decoration appears to have been rendered in an artisan rather than an industrial tradition.

A symbol resembling two conjoined lozenges is stamped into the bar at the end of one of the arms. When combined with smaller similar crosses in its angles, this symbol would become the Cross of Jerusalem, the badge of that Crusader kingdom - the military Orders held extensive lands in eastern England, though their local importance was primarily economic.
