| Title |
Knife end-cap |
||
| Description |
English: A cast copper-alloy knife end-cap of early post-Medieval date (c. 1500-c. 1600). The end-cap resembles a claw-hammer. However, it may, in fact, be a stylised dog’s head, a popular design for an end-cap of this period. The base is oval in cross-section. On the underside there is just the slight remains of the slot for the tang which is largely obscured by iron staining. The surface colour is dull reddish brown overlain with superficial copper alloy corrosion products. There are flecks of a dark green patina. |
