Description: | A copper-alloy ring with projecting spigot at the base. The form of this piece suggests it was probably a swivelling handle attachment, probably from a Roman metal vessel.The ring is of sub-oval section, slightly flattened on the inside. Its thickness tapers towards the apex, probably as a result of wear through use. At the base is a double moulded collar with central groove. A circular-sectioned spigot projects downwards from the flat underside, tapering to a point.Dimensions: height: 28.3mm; width: 18.1mm; thickness: 6.7mm. Weight: 4.59g.
