Description: | Unidentified object made from copper alloy. It consists of a thin vertical plate fronted by a modelled vertical leg which ends in an out-turned foot on which the object can stand upright. The leg is 4 mm wide, and has two slightly convex panels one above the other. The uppermost panel has small cut-outs out of its upper corners, forming a narrowed and possibly broken projection at the top. Behind, the thin vertical plate has broken edges, and on one face has concentric grooves as if it has been ground, filed or polished. The other face is less well finished. The foot turns out at slightly less than a right angle, and when the object sits upright it rests on the thin plate on the reverse. The foot is sub-triangular; one edge is almost straight, and angled slightly inwards, the other has a concave outwards curve, and the outermost edge has a convex curve. The standing height is 21 mm, the width from front to back 28 mm, and the third dimension is 10 mm at most. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
