Description: | Flat cast lead alloy openwork panel. The panel is trapezoidal with shorter slanting side edges, one of which remains. This edge has two integral hinges formed from triangular tags, the upper of which has broken. The other side edge has been lost. The panel is formed from a border of wider strips with narrow open lattice work rectangular panels within. The strips have a rope-twist pattern along their centre. Near the damaged right hand edge is a four-petalled flower with a central circle and pellet. The object resembles published hinged door panels from toy buffets dating from the sixteenth century. However the trapezoidal shape is unusual. It is possible that this is a side panel of such a toy. | 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: | 1500
