Description: | A copper-alloy thimble, probably dating to the 16th-17th century. The thimble is rounded with a rounded crown. The indentations in the thimble appear to be circular in shape. The indentations have been arranged in irregular rows and have been done by hand. This thimble has been cast as one piece. The thimble does not thicken around the base and there is no rim, but the base of the thimble is very worn and damaged. The copper alloy is mid orangey-brown in colour on the outer surface, with a dark green patina on the inner surface.
