A silver quatrefoil mount dating from the fifteenth or sixteenth century. The mount is cut from sheet and is pierced at the centre. There are petal markings engraved on the front, but the reverse is plain. Similar mounts can be seen in 'Dress Accessories' by Geoff Egan and Frances Pritchard (1991) on page 185. The mount is 14.7mm long, 14.3mm wide and 0.9mm thick. This object qualifies as Treasure under the Treasure Act 1996 and has been reported under the Act. It has since been disclaimed since no museum wishes to purchase the mount.
