Description: | A copper alloy post-medieval (AD c.1500-c.1800) possible ferrule from a knife handle or a staff fitting. Overall, the object measures 10.8mm long and 14.2mm in diameter. It weighs 0.74g. The ferrule is made from a 0.4mm thick strip of copper alloy that has repoussé decoration on it (the negative impression of the decoration is visible on the inside surface). The decoration consists of a central circumferential ridge, with a pattern of diagonal rows of pellets and ridges on either side. The ferrule is complete but slightly bent out of shape.
