Description: | A copper-alloy thimble, dating to the 15th - 16th century. The thimble is short with a rounded top. The indentations in the thimble are circular. The indentations have been arranged in a spiral. This thimble has been cast as one piece. The thimble does thicken around the base and it 1.03mm thick and there is no rim.
It is worn and the metal has lost much of its original surface. The metal is a dark brownish-green colour. Parallels can be seen in Egan (2005), p132, fig: 126. | 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: | 1400
