Description: | A cast copper-alloy figurine, possibly a spoon terminal dating from the medieval or early post-medieval period. Length: 25.2mm; width: 7.3mm; thickness at the base: 5.6mm; mass: 3.6g. The front and sides of object are in the shape of a figure, with a bulge on their midriff, on their right hand side, suggesting that something is being held. The figurine has a heavily pitted brown/green surface with a light brown surface visible in portions of more recessed areas. Few fine details are present. The reverse is almost flat. There is a broken sub-circular/oval stub in the centre of the base (diameter: about 3mm). This figurine is possibly the terminal from a spoon. The object is similar to figurine LEIC-F2E746 recorded on the PAS database, which is gilded. On stylistic grounds, the object is probably medieval or early post-medieval. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Slarke, Duncan - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
