Description: | A possible copper alloy spout from a vessel dating to the Medieval or Post Medieval periods. The object consists of a copper alloy panel decorated with a face made up of incised lines for the eyes and a perforation forming the mouth and the spout. The bottom and the sides of the panel extend behind the face and there is then a break which suggests the object was surmounted onto another, possibly a jug. It has been difficult to find a parallel for this object, but the term 'ewer' could be searched for on this database, although this objects normally have zoomporphic decoration. It weighs 56.9g and measures 34.53mm in height and 3.59mm in thickness.
