Description: | A copper-alloy thimble, dating to the 15th - 16th century. The thimble is short with a rounded top. The indentations in the thimble are oval. The indentations have been arranged in a spiral. This thimble has been cast as one piece. The thimble does thicken around the base and there is a rim. It is worn and the metal has lost much of its original surface. The metal is a dark brownish-red colour. Parallels can be seen in Egan (2005), p132, fig: 126. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
