Description: | A copper alloy purse frame which is post-medieval in date. The frame is a curved bar which is circular in section. It is decorated by two or three faint incised circumferential lines at each end, which, although there are no specific terminals, suggests that the bar is complete. Four circular loops projects from the frame. The frame is 95.6mm long, 10.5mm wide and 6.2mm thick. The metal is in good condition and has a fairly even dark patina. Part of a similar frame, though with slightly different loops, can be seen in Egan (2005) on page 62. It has been dated from AD 1500 to 1700.
