Description: | Copper alloy and woodScabbard Chape. Cast sheet chape, U-shaped with a round hole of diameter 1.7mm for its fixing; this perhaps held an angular-section pin. Slivers of wood are retained within the chape, and may represent a further part of a scabbard preserved by the proximity of copper alloy. The chape is now open-ended, and was presumably closed at its end by crimping. Suggested date: Medieval, 1250-1450.Length: 42.4mm, Width: 35.1mm, Thickness (sheet): 0.9mm, Weight: 9.62gms.
