Description: | A fragment of a pair of copper alloy tweezers, with a form characteristic of the middle Saxon period. The tweezers are broken and distorted with only one arm and part of the loop surviving. The arm is rectangular in section and flattens and flairs to form a triangular plate, the terminal of which is missing. The arm is decorated with marginal grooves. The tweezers have a length of 25mm. Each arm has a maximum width of 11mm. Similar tweezers can be seen in MacGregor and Bolick, 1993, pp222-6, ref: 38.13-38.18. | 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: | 720
