A silver medieval fitting, perhaps a box mount or from a miniature book cover, decorated at one end with four extended perforations, whereby the mount was attached to its original object. The shaft of the mount tapers slightly to a pointed end. The fitting is badly distorted and bent roughly at its mid-point so that the two ends are now joined.
