Description: | The item is a sub-rectangular shape in plan and the whole item is curved slightly, with the apex of the curve being the outer facing surface. The item is made up of one sheet of copper alloy which has two rivets protruding through it. This sheet has a light green patina. On the reverse the rivets are flattened and have become a square shape. On the outer face the rivets are sub-circular and are not flush with the vessels' surface. Attached to one rivet is a fragment of a second sheet of copper alloy. The purpose of the rivet appears to be for fixing this second sheet. The second sheet has a darker green patina. This maybe where a suspension mount is mounted to the vessel. | 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: | 1300
