Description: | A copper-alloy swivel of probable late medieval date. This piece probably served to attach a handle to the top of a metal bowl, such as a laver.
The object is sturdy, with the circular-section shaft separated from the loop by a moulded collar. The aperture is circular. The shaft appears to be broken off about 9mm below the moulded collar.
The object measures 25.2mm long, 17.1mm wide, and 6mm thick. It weighs 8.9g. | Subjects: | Attachment | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Laakso, Laura | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
