Aumônière

Metz [57] Le musée de La Cour d’Or-Metz Métropole

© Musée de la Cour d’Or –Metz Métropole

Aumonier composed of nine leather elements: the back and its lining, a flap, a front plate in the shape of a crescent with truncated points, two small triangles with truncated points mounted on the front plate, an insert between these two pieces, a saddle edge and a piping. Perforations seem to indicate the presence of an embroidered decoration disappeared. A metal clip allows the closure.
4th quarter of the 15th century - early 16th century.
