Description: | Copper alloy lace chape. The chape is cast into a hollow tube tapering to a point. At the wider end there are two incised grooves with a ridge between them forming a band. The chape is otherwise undecorated. Such chapes were probably attached to a piece of leather or other textile to prevent fraying and to allow easy threading through corresponding eyelets in a garment. Patchy dull, dark patina. | 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: | 1200
