Description: | The object appears to be incomplete and consists of two pieces of metal wire placed one on top of the other and slightly fused together. One end of the two wires is broken. The other is enlarged into a triangular shape and flattened. The back of this trangular area is rough suggesting it may have been attached to a larger item. The front of the area is also rough but is a way that suggests it was melted or had semi-melted pieces attached.
The object is possibly part of a handle which was attached a vessel at the flattened and enlarged end. It was either damaged by heat or not finished after soldering or hot working. It may be made of pewter or a similar alloy. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | WALKER, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
