| Description |
English: A Post Medieval silver cufflink dating to the 17th century. There are two fasteners with an oval wire link connecting the two. Each fastener is hollow, convex with a flat back and a simple wire loop. There are two holes on each back and one of the fasteners is stamped with a maker's mark "GH"; the G is slightly obscured. The front surface of each fastener is decorated with an engraved pattern comprising two overlapping triangles forming a six-pointed star. In the centre is an annulet with radiating lines forming a floral or star burst motif. The fastener with the maker's mark has a dent in the front surface.
Read (2005:88 no. 366) illustrates a button with a similar pattern which he dates to the 17th century. Dimensions: length: 43.94mm; width: 20.89mm; diameter: 28.14mm; weight: 2.11g. Reference: Read, B. 2005. Metal Buttons C.900BC - AD1700. Portcullis Publishing, Langport, Somerset. Kate Sumnall |
