Description: | A cast copper alloy probable cosmetic implement dating to the Roman period. The object is flat and curved along one edge while the opposite edge is straight. At the top of the object is a circular suspension loop. The internal diameter of the perforation measures 4.5mm. The loop would have enabled the object to be suspended from a belt and possibly worn with other cosmetic implements. The opposite end terminates with a rounded point which is incomplete. Each face is undecorated and has a worn dark brown patina. The exact function of the object is uncertain.
