Description: | Incomplete copper alloy inverted T-shaped loop handle from a medieval to post-medieval chafing dish (or perhaps cupboard door, Margeson 1993, 78-9). Many examples are known (e.g. IOW-600408). Normally the attachment stud at the top is highly standardised (e.g. Margeson 1993, nos. 489-90), but this present example is an exception, a loop of cut and folded sheet, probably now distorted. The handle is, as usual, hexagonal in cross-section, and there are profuse file marks. Estimated width 60mm. 15th - 16th century.A3 on annotated aerial photograph in file.
