Description: | Cast cu-alloy thimble dating from the middle or later medieval period. The thimble is complete and quite narrow (compared to the tall silver or tin thimbles of the early modern period). The dots on the outside were hand-drilled by a medieval thimbler who arranged them in a spiral starting at the top of the thimble and then working his way down to the opening. It is undecorated and in fairly good condition.
