Description: | Medieval cast copper alloy vessel, which may have been used as an ampulla. The vessel is a small flask, the body of which has been damaged. The flask has a slightly out turned rim, measuring 16.24mm. The neck is narrow with a diameter of 13.23mm, and the sides appear concave in profile. The base of the neck extends out into the globular body, which has a maximum diameter of 28.51mm. Part of the body wall is damaged and missing. The breaks have little wear, and as such are likely to be recent. The base of the vessel was slightly rounded. The centre of the base has a cast circular hole, measuring 5.99mm in diameter. The walls of the vessel measure 1.42mm, and the wall of the neck measures 1.90mm. It weighs 25.2 grams and is 41.48mm long. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McLean, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
