Description: | End fragment of a decorated, cast, pewter spoon handle, probably late 17th- mid-18th century (1675-1750 AD). The fragment consists of a flat strip of lead alloy (pewter) with a old break at one end from which the sides splay outwards in a straight line to a curved terminal at the other end with a break to one corner. The back is flat with a slight raised rim on the three original edges (not the broken end). On the front is a central raised strip, D shaped in section; the central strip is flanked by flat decorated strips with a raised design of zig zag lines with pellets in each triangle all within a raised line border. It is 44.2mm long, 20.4mm wide, 2.8mm thick and weighs 12.77 grams.
