Description: | A cast lead animal skin rug, probably a toy, for example dolls house furniture. The reverse is flat and the upper side is moulded in the form of an outstretched animal skin with head and tail attached. The head and fur are depicted in detail. Traces of yellow paint can be seen on the surface and it is likely that the object was painted to resemble (possibly) a tiger or a lion. No parallel for the object could be found but it is likely to be of relatively modern date. | 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: | 1700
