Description: | A cast copper-alloy handle fragment from a cooking vessel of Medieval or Post-Medieval date. This could either be part of a L-shaped handle lug from a cauldron, or possibly an open brace from below the handle of a skillet. The handle is oval in section with a small amount of the vessel body remaining around one end (19.6 by 18.8mm) and an angled old break at the other, possibly where it would have bent originally. The fragment has corroded to a mid/dark-grey colour with patches of green corrosion product and extensive black sooting. the handle section is 14.0mm by 12.8mm and it is 46.4mm long in total; it weighs 53.97 grams.It is comparable with an L-shaped cauldron lug handle illustrated in Butler et al. (2009, 5; ref. 3a) and with HAMP-11E993 and the more complete NCL-741653 on this database.
