Description: | A complete copper-alloy foot, possibly from a metal vessel. Probably Medieval to Post-Medieval. The foot is sub-triangular in cross-section and was probably one of three feet soldered to the base of a vessel. It has a flat back and the two sides are slightly convex and form a pointed front. In side view, it is trapezoidal in form and the front is slightly longer than the back. Near the top of each side, adjacent to the rear face, there is a small sub-oval lip which does not extend to the rear face. The base of the foot is flat and uneven. At the top, the surface is slightly concave and uneven. This surface would have been soldered to the base of a vessel. The side faces are decorated with numerous short linear stab marks. The object is in good condition and has a mid-green patina. 21.0 x 21.4 x 21.1mm. Weight: 43.68g.
