At one end it is in cylinder form, 7.5mm in length and 6.6mm in diameter. Close to one end of the cylinder it has a decorative circumferential groove. At the opposite end there is an integral spheroid knop, 8.7mm in length and 10.5mm in diameter. This part is cross-hatched over its entire surface. Through the centre of both elements there is an iron object, possibly a tang that protrudes above the top of the knop. The copper-alloy part appears to be complete.It has a mid to dark green patina and some small areas of corrosion with off-white copper-alloy corrosion deposits in the crevices.22.2 x 10.5 x 6.79g.It has been suggested that the object may be a fan terminal.
