Description: | A cast copper alloy lug and handle, possibly the handle from a chafing dish or similar vessel. The lug is cast in the shape of a clenched fist, with an integral circular rivet at the wrist, measuring 29.4mm x 17.5mm. There is a large circular perforation through which the handle is threaded, therefore the hand is grasping the handle. The handle is drop handle. The fragment which remains is flat with a hexagonal section and chamfered edges. There are eight small circular incised depressions spaced evenly along one surface of the handle. The surface is somewhat worn with some worn filing striations. It has a deep green patina. This object is probably late medieval to post medieval in date.
