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 sub-rectangular in form, sub triangular in section with a flat back face, 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. On the back face the base of the foot is set at an angle of 45 degrees before terminating in old breaks. The remainder of the object is undecorated.This vessel foot measures 34.80mm in length, 32.53mm in width, 12.85mm in thickness, 60.10g in weight.There is a similar example from London (Egan, 1998, p. 164, no. 460).
