Description: | Copper-alloy socket from a candlestick of branched double-socket type. A square piece of the rim is missing and the socket is squashed and split. It is decorated with circumferential lines; a single one at the top near the rim, then a double line, then a single line around the middle and another single line around the tapering base. The stub at the base, which would have fitted into a hole on the separate branch, has broken off (both breaks are slightly worn). Original diameter perhaps 21 mm. See Brownsword 1985 (FRG Datasheet no.1) fig 3 for a complete example of the type. | 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: | 1450
