Title
Cast copper alloy centre-looped cosmetic pestle dating to the Iron Age.
Description
English: Cast copper alloy centre-looped cosmetic pestle dating to the Iron Age. The object consists of a plain concentric rod with tapered ends. The rod is circular in cross-section. There is a small circular suspension loop which joins to the centre of the concave edge of the crescentic rod, by a short stem. A small moulded collar separates the stem and the loop. It has a smooth mid-green patina and shows some sign of wear on the tapered ends. These objects can be dated from the 1st century BC to the early 2nd century AD. A similar example can be found on p.118, fig 8 Britannia Vol XVI, 1985.
