Description: | Two cast copper alloy vessel legs, from two separate vessels which are thought to date to the 13th to 17th centuries AD. 1(On the left): Cast copper alloy vessel leg which is trapezoid shaped in cross-section, with a flat front face and alternate angled sides which taper inwards to a flat and narrower reverse face. The leg is undecorated. The base of the leg flares out to form a very angular, trapezoid shaped foot, which is much thicker than the leg. The foot is heavily corroded so that one can see inside the foot, which appears to be hollow. The leg is mid brown-green in colour with pitting occurring over the surface. The leg is 35.5mm at its longest point, 25.4mm at its widest point, 6.5mm thick at the leg, 7.8mm thick at the foot and weighs 35.28g. 2: The vessel leg is sub-trapezoid shaped in cross-section with a median rib approximately 8.1mm wide, which runs longitudinally down the front of the leg stopping shortly above the foot. The base of the leg flares out to form a trapezoid shaped foot, which is slightly thicker than the leg. The foot is undecorated and is damaged around its edges. The leg is mid green in colour and heavily abraded. The leg is 67.5mm at its longest point, 20.6mm at its widest point, 15.0mm thick at the leg, 7.8mm and weighs 109.89g.
