Description: | Sheet copper alloy dagger scabbard chape length: 19mm; width: 16mm; thickness: 6mm; weight: 1.66g. This example is made from a plain copper alloy sheet, about 1mm thick, that has been folded into a conical shape, the edges overlap. The top opening is oval with a crenulated rim. The bottom edge, although heavily damaged by corrosion, appears to have been folded to create a rounded base. Examples are known from archaeological contexts in London and have been dated to the 14th-16th centuries (Ward, 1967, 280-288).Ward Perkins, 1967, London Museum. Medieval Catalogue, HMSO
