Description: | A small copper alloy 'Jew's Harp' of Post-Medieval date. It has a circular shaped bow at one end that measures 21.37mm in width, is lozenge shaped in section and has a flattened top with a rectangular slot for the now missing iron tongue. The remains of two short lozenge shaped arms are present, however these terminate in old breaks. The entire object measures 38.72mm in length, 21.37mm in width, and weighs 4.46g. This is likely to be seventeenth or eighteenth century in date. See Bailey, 1995: 76-77, nos. 4-6 for parallels. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
