Description: | A cast copper alloy Roman nail cleaner. Crummy Type 2.
The nail cleaners have a leaf-shaped body made from a plate of copper alloy. Running down the centre of the front of the plate is an incised line. The terminal has a flared end, where the incised line divides.
The suspension loop remains intact, it is circular and flat. Three collars run around the neck of the cleaners.
These nail cleaners are thought to date to the 1st century AD.
