Record ID: BERK-67CE56
Object type: DRESS FASTENER (DRESS)
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete cast lead alloy dress fastener or hooked tag of early post-medieval date. The hooked tag is a rounded oval in plan and has two attachment holes drilled through the decorated face plate. The upper suqared loop and the lower loop or possibly the hook, are missing. The holes through the plate are unusual for a hooked tag of this type and they may have been redrilled after the periphery loops broke off. The decotation on the front of the plate is an abstract spray of flowers. Suggested date AD 1500-1600.
