Description: | A copper alloy probable dagger chape of late post-medieval or early modern date. The chape has been made from a rolled sheet of copper alloy and is conical in plan with a roughly circular section. There are two holes at the top of the chape just below the opening, and there are two sets of circumferential lines running around the chape; these are very neat and may have been done on a lathe or other item of machinery rather than being incised by hand. Because of this and the form of the chape it is suggested that this object dates from c. AD 1700-1850.
