Description: | mazer
Edinburgh, Scotland - The dating of the mazer is in contention. The mazer bears the date 1567: this may be a later addition. The Deacon's mark is that of Thomas Ewing, who was Deacon of the Edinburgh Incorporation 1552-55, 1556-57 and 1561-62. So it is likely that the mazer was made in one of these periods. How feels that the period 1561-62 is most likely, while Finlay concludes that 1562 is the latest possible date. Maxwell is undecided between 1561-62 and 1567, Cant gives 1561-62 and Jackson 1556-67 or 1561-62. | Publisher: | University of St Andrews | Rights holder: | 47795 | Subjects: | HALLMARK silver mazer | Temporal: | 1552/1567 | Source: | University of St Andrews | Creator: | AUCHINLECK, Alexander | Identifier: | HC292 | Language: | en-GB |
