Description: | Copper alloyUnidentified object. Cast concavo-convex tapering tubular object, possibly one half of a pair. The outer convex surface bears a deeply cross hatched field with bordered plain zones above and below, and with a flattened edge either side of this curving surface. The narrower end is closed, with a short lug or casting sprue. The concave surface is entirely plain and smooth. The external surface appears intended to facilitate manual grip, while the thickness of the object suggests robusticity was required of it. The object is probably complete. Suggested date: Modern, 1800-1900.Diameter/Width: 14.5mm, Length: 23.0mm, Thickness: 2.9mm, Weight: 5.38gms.
