Description: | Part of a small minature toy cup or chalice made from pewter, probably dating to the post medieval period. The cup has a small circular foot (or pedestal) with a a raised line around it's circumference about 3mm from the edge. The foot narrows at the base of the cup, then widens out to form the main body of the vessel. There is another raised line around the circumference of the vessel just above the narrowed leg part. On the body of the vessel there are two tiny raised flower shaped designs visible, each with a pellet at the centre. The cup has been flattened and broken whilst in the ground. It weighs 3.09g and measures 21.62mm in length, 22.3mm in width and 7.56mm in thickness. It is possible that some minatures were used in a church setting although this is not certain. | 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: | 1500
