Description: | Medieval or Post Medieval sheet copper alloy folded rivet, probably a repair for a copper alloy vessel. The rivet is made from a lozenge-shaped piece of sheet the ends of which have been folded in to meet in the middle and then back out. This example appears to have an extra copper alloy sheet across the back and bent over the front on one side. It measures 43.6mm 9.8mm, it is 3.9mm thick and weighs 5.16g.A similar rivet is illustrated in Egan's 'Medieval Household' (1998, p. 176, no. 489) and in Egan (2005:101) Fig: 87.
