Description: | Large ceramic fragment of a candlestick that would have had a separately-luted drip plate dating from the early post-medieval period, probably c. AD1500-1700. The candlestick fragment is cylindrical and resembles a vessel foot. It is, however, hollow. The ceramic walls are very thick and sturdy (12.72mm) and diameter of the fragment at the bottom is greater (85.54mm) than at the top (59.92mm). It was probably handmade, with a thick spiral fingermark decoration on the outside and remains of a thick greenish-yellow glaze at the side and at the bottom.
