Description: | A cast copper-alloy fragment from a post-medieval cooking vessel, probably a skillet. The artefact is trapezoidal in plan and semi-circular in profile. It is decorated unifacially on its flat 'upper' surface with longitudinal grooves towards the edges. In profile the fragment is gradually curved. On most skillets any curvature would be downwards; confusingly on this example this would mean that the decorated surface would not be viewed. It is therefore assumed that either there was unusual upward curvature on this handle or that it has been damaged in the past. The fragment has corroded to a variable mid-dark green colour. | Subjects: | handle skillet | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
