Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy zoomorphic foot from a Medieval cooking vessel. Only part of the base of the foot survives, the remainder of the object is missing due to old breaks, now worn.It is pointed oval in form and plano-convex in section, terminating at the top of the foot in old breaks. The front of the foot has two concave depressions separated by a moulded vertical ridge, probably intended to represent toes. The remainder of the object is undecorated.This vessel foot measures 47.24mm in length, 36.03mm in width, 12.46mm in thickness, 100.75g in weight.There is a similar example from London (Egan, 1998, p. 164, no. 460).
