Description: | Medieval/Post-Medieval copper alloy thumb-piece from lid of ewer with twin acorn knops, broken across the spindle housing. Acorn thumb-pieces were fixed to vessel lids by the early 14th century (cf. a pewter flagon from Tonbridge Castle (Alexander and Binski (1987) 281, cat. no. 211)), but the form of this example is closer to that on a 15th- or 16th-century ewer from Strata Florida (Lewis (1987) 4, fig. 7). Width across knops 30mm. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Robbins, Katherine - Norfolk Museums and Archaeology Service | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
