Description: | An incomplete pair of copper-alloy dividers dating to the post-medieval period. One of the arms has broken just below the hinge while the other has been bent round on itself after a number of strikes. The complete arm has a globular terminal at the hinge end and tapers to a point at the other. Some similarly basic dividers can be found illustrated in Bailey (1993, 69; refs. 10, 11). These are tentatively dated to the 16th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
