Title
ewer leg (section)
Description
English: Cast copper alloy leg from a ewer, with an sub-triangular broken section at the top end of the leg, which is 11 mm wide and 15 mm deep, and an extended foot at the other end, which is 25 mm long and 13.3 mm wide and 10 mm thick. There is a central flattened rib on the front of the foot from the toe to the broken edge, and the back has multple horizontal ridges from the mould. The leg is L-shaped in profile and oval at its base. The leg is 41 mm long, 13 mm wide and 24 mm thick. Lewis, Brownsword and Pitt (1987), in their paper on Medieval Bronze Tripod Ewers from Wales, in Medieval Archaeology Vol.XXXI, illustrate similar examples on page 85, Fig.2, Nos.2-5, which are dated from the 14th or early 15th century. Margeson (1993) illustrates two similar examples on page 92, Fig.59, No.568 & 569, which are dated to c.1507 and c.1650-1750, respectively. Ottaway and Rogers (2002) illustrate a similar example on page 2810, Fig.1394, No.14193, which is dated from the mid 15th century to the early 17th century.
