Roman copper alloy mount
Decorative fitting or mount with concave upper section, possibly for a paste 'gem' stone. Damaged, it appears to consist of a shell of sheet metal with the usual white composition filler still visible in places. The deep head is raised by four moulded ears on the underside. May have been a stud head, or appliqued or riveted on to some larger item.
