Description: | A copper alloy probable rim fragment of a vessel. The vessel was probably made of thick sheet metal with a slightly thickened rim. The fragment is 40mm long, 18.7mm wide from the rim to the lowest part of the fragment, and 1.5mm thick. The fragment is curved and the edges are damaged, mostly torn, but in one area bent double. There is no decoration on the outside but there are a series of scratches round the inside, about 3mm or 4mm from the top of the rim. The fragment is difficult to date but is likely to be Early Medieval or Medieval. The fragment has a nice dark green glossy patina with some areas of light brown corrosion, and bright green corrosion on the damaged edges. | Subjects: | rim | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
