Hook and Eye fasteners?

Post by Primvs Pavlvs »

Whats the earliest hook and eye fasteners can be documented? I have recently sewn a 14th cent coat and was wanting to use a hook and eye for the closure around the neck.

Dammit! I'm sure I've seen them much earlier than that, but damned if I can remember where!
