Description: | Part of a medieval probable vessel or casket right-angled drop handle, a cast copper alloy round-sectioned rod, broken at both ends, with opposed casting seams. The diameter gently reduces at an equal rate in both directions from a constriction between two encircling ribs. This constriction, which would have been central to the horozontal part of the handle, is odd: normally there is a swelling or knop at this point, and the cross-section is hexagonal (Egan 1998, no. 487). Extant length 89mm. Diameter 6.2 - 8.5mm. The original length was more than 112mm. 14th - nearly 16th century.
