Description: | A copper alloy scabbard chape, dating to the late medieval period/ early post medieval period. The chape is made of a folded sheet of copper alloy which has been wrapped around and its two terminals would have originally been soldered together.
The chape is sub-triagnular in plan, measuring 42mm in length and has an oval cross section measurig 16mm. The chape appears to be undecorated. There are three circular pierced holes at around the upper edge of the chape, possibly for mounting/ fitting the chape on a belt. | 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
