Description: | A cast lead Shy cock toy of probable 18th century AD date (H. Forsyth and G. Egan; 2004; pp. 240).
The object has been cast in one piece and is crudely made. It depicts a cockerel with a long, curved neck and possibly a backwards-facing (and incomplete) head. The wing is clearly depicted and there is some attempt to define the feathers. The details are visible on both sides. The base is narrow, flat and uneven in shape.
The piece measures 44.8mm long by 41.3mm high and 7mm thick; it weighs 37.7g. | Subjects: | Shy cock | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
