Description: | A lead-alloy knop from a post-Medieval spoon.The solid-cast knop takes the form of a three dimensional figure. The forward-facing figure is depicted emerging from a calyx, his hands held together at the waist, as if in prayer. The figure appears to be naked, and there is a triangular arrangement of three circular mouldings on the chest; what these represent is unclear. The facial features have been obliterated by wear. A short length of the circular-sectioned stem projects from the base of the calyx.Length: 28.4mm; width: 11mm; thickness: 6.2mm; weight: 5.37g.A similar figure can be seen on PAS record GLO-FD7220, for which a 16th or 17th century date is suggested.
