Description: | A Post Medieval lead alloy toy bowl, probably 17th century. The find comprises a miniature lead alloy deep bowl with steep, curving sides and a small foot-ring at the base. The bowl has a lip that extends outwards at a slight angle, and below this lip the exterior of the sides are covered down to the base with a number of fine horizontal striations in parallel. On the interior, the sides have been decorated near the base with a pattern of vertical diagonal lines which are in parallel and very close together. These are quite hard to discern as the interior of the bowl is fairly pock-marked and has some corrosion. Projecting inwards from the base of the bowl is a small hump caused by damage to the exterior of the bowl that has punched a small amount of the metal inwards.Dimensions: length: 10.13mm; thickness: 1.13mm; diameter at rim: 25.27mm; weight: 4.33g.
