Title
IOW-7DCF17 Medieval Ewer Leg/Foot
Description
English: A Medieval cast copper-alloy leg and foot, probably from a three-legged ewer (c. 1400-c. 1500 AD).
The sides of the leg taper inwards, from a break at the top, towards the foot at the bottom. Both edges of the leg and the foot are chamfered at the front. At the front, between the leg and the foot, there is a horizontal ridge. The rear face of the leg is largely flat but slightly concave near the foot. Part of the base of the foot is flat and part is bulbous. This object has a pale green and mid-green patina. The break is old.

75.43 x 35.54 x 21.38mm. Weight: 107.73g.
