Description: | A sheet copper alloy chape, probably a lace tag, of Medieval to Post-Medieval date. It is formed from a rolled sheet of copper alloy with a vertical seam visible along one side. The chape tapers towards the base, which has a small circular opening, while the opposite end is also circular in shape but has been subject to extensive post-depositional damage. It measures 67.23mm in length, 15.84mm in diameter/width at the top, 8.24mm in diameter/width at the base, and weighs 6g.
This is probably a lace chape or tag and dates to the later Medieval or Post-Medieval periods of the 12th to 16th centuries AD. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Brown, Andrew | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
