Description: | A cast copper alloy Post Medieval candlestick. The object is incomplete, and the length is 53mm, the width is 16mm, thickness 16mm and the weight 39.42g. The candlestick is composite with the base being attached to the stem of the stick. The stem of the candle stick is oval in section with the edges being faceted. The stem is relatively short - at its top is a oval socket or cup in which to place the candle. The exterior surface is decorated with a double incised circumferential band or ring. The candlestick is a dark green-brown colour. A direct parallel has not been found - however given its construction and size it is likely to represent a product from the lower end of the market. Similarities can be seen in records HESH-943963, WMID-C2FE31 and LON-EB12C4.
