Description: | Copper alloy possible scabbard chape. Sheet metal of thickness 0.4mm tightly folded with a probably butted seam, now opened. A further sliver or fold of sheet metal, possibly entirely separate, is enclosed, and may have served as a stiffener. There are slight traces of a black coating on what is interpreted as the display face. This object would be for the end of the sheath for a small and pointed blade; given its plain finish, this was possibly a tool. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1750.Length: 34.0mm, Width: 13.1mm, Thickness (overall): 4.0mm, Weight: 3.83gms
