Description: | A cast copper alloy scabbard chape of late medieval or post-medieval date. The chape measures 54.49mm in length by 14.68mm (maximum diameter) by 9.84mm (minimum diameter) and weighs 13g. The upper edge is damaged but may formerly have had a portion deliberately cut out on both sides. The chape's surface is quite corroded but two bands of parallel horizontal lines are visible, one just below the cut out upper edge and the other around the centre. There are hints of further cast decoration, but it is very unclear. The chape's terminal expands slightly into a rounded knop. There is further damage in this area. | 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: | 1400
