Description: | A cast copper-alloy fragment from a cooking vessel of medieval/post-medieval date: probably a handle lug from a cauldron, based on its size, possibly an open brace from a skillet. The fragment consists of a small section of the vessel's body with a curious bevelled edge on one side. The 'handle' that emerges from it is sub-oval in cross section. It turns through almost ninety degrees developing more of a teardrop cross-section through the turn with the narrower end internal. The object has been broken just after the bend in the past. The fragment has corroded to a grey/green colour with some patches of a black coating or lacquer. It is comparable with a cauldron lug handle illustrated in Butler et al. (2009, 5; ref. 3b).
