Description: | A length of copper-alloy chain and two separate links, Medieval. The chain is constructed from oval links. Each link is passed through the top of the two lower links and the bottom of the two upper links. The chain has a pale green powdery patina. It is similar to no. 1599 but the links are connected slightly differently(Egan & Pritchard 1991:319 fig.210). The chain does not resmble the chains used for scales that comprised of S-shaped links (Ottaway & Rogers 2002:2952). Nor lamp suspension chains that consist of a straight length of wire with end loops usually bent in opposite directions (Egan 1998:131-2). Length: 85.65mm; width: 7.78mm; thickness: 2.91mm; weight: 6.41g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Sumnall, Kate - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
