Description
English: A Post Medieval silver gilt dress hook (16th century).

Front with built-up central cushion of lozenge shape decorated with applied filigree spirals and knops around a central knop. Not gilded. Good condition. Lozenge-shaped dress hooks of flatter appearance are fairly commonly reported through the Treasure Act, as are ones with cushion-like centres as here. 16th Century. As such, due to its age and precious metal content, this object qualifies as Treasure under the stipulations of the Treasure Act 1996.
