Description: | A complete cast copper alloy domed or 'beehive' thimble dating to the fourteenth or fifteenth centuries AD. The sides taper inwards towards a domed apex. There is a small V-shaped ?nick? on the rim. This feature is probably related to a manufacturing technique. The walls are punched with rows of circular indentations. The thimble measures 19mm in length and 19mm in diameter. | 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: | 1350
