Description: | A cast copper alloy vessel leg in the shape of animal??s foot, probably medieval. The underside of the foot is triangular. The foot extends upwards in a three sided solid form. Two sides are shaped in the form of an animal??s foot and the third side which forms the back of the leg is flat. The foot bows outwards slightly at the front where the two sides meet, and then tapers inwards. The animal??s foot form meets a horizontal ridge which runs around two sides of the artefact. Above the ridge the foot continues in a plain three sided form to the top where it has been broken away from the rest of the vessel which is missing. When standing on its base the whole foot slopes away when viewed from the front.
Length 48.90mm, width at top 25.76mm, minimum width 23.66mm, width at base 35.66mm, thickness at top 15.01mm, thickness at base 35.56mm. Weight 105.2g. | Subjects: | Leg | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Wilde, Mary | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
