Description: | Incomplete medieval copper alloy thimble, the dome missing. There is a notch in the base, indicating that the object has been turned (Egan 1998, 266, nos. 829-31). Apart from a blank band around the base topped by an engraved line the sides are covered with a continuously applied spiral of round indentations. The neatness of the edge at the top suggests the deliberate removal of the dome. The spiral of dots is cerianly truncated by this edge. Present height 13.5mm. Diameter 16.5mm. 15th century. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
