Description: | Solid copper-alloy knob, perhaps from furniture, now very worn and corroded. It has a short cylindrical base, 18 mm in diameter and c. 9 mm tall, with the remains of two grooves around the outside and a dimple filled with corrosion on the underside. It then curves to a waisted area before swelling slightly to a cylinder 10 mm in diameter and c. 15 mm tall, which is decorated with two further grooves. The top may originally have been rounded, and has a central dimple. The two dimples may represent the remains of a hole through the centre of the knob; there is no trace of the usual iron attachment shank. Overall maximum height 29 mm. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 43
