Description: | A copper alloy knop from the top of a spoon handle. The handle is an apostle type, in the form of a figure holding a child. There are a series of curved mouldings representing drapery. The figure represents Mary and the infant Jesus. There is a discoid base beneath, with a thin copper alloy rod protruding, broken, possibly the core of the handle. Measures 29.7mm x 9.5mm x 8.9mm, weighing 4.61g. Geake assigns this apostle type to the late Medieval or early post-Medieval. A similar example is LIN-99F635, which is similarly dated; 1400-1600AD. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
