Description: | A complete copper-alloy thimble, measuring 17mm in height and with a rim diameter of 18mm. This thimble is slightly damaged along its rim and has been bent on one side. The sides are straight and decorated with circular indentations as is the top, apart from the centre of the top which remains bare. As the indentations are so worn it is diffcult to be sure how they are arranged, they are either in horizontal rows or possibly arranged to form a spiral, although if this is so the start of the spiral is not visible due to the damaged rim. This thimble is likely to be 15th or 16th century in date (Geake 2001, 64). | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
