Title
Medieval Ewer Vessel
Description
English: A cast copper leg from a ewer (water jug), of medieval date. The fragment measures 55.9mm by 18.5mm by 11.7mm and weighs 35g. It would have been one of three on a complete vessel. The inside face of the leg is flat and the outside face is faceted to form an irregular hexagonal cross-section. Immediately above the foot there is a horizontal ridge. The foot projects forward and has a rounded terminal. This ewer foot dates from the fourteenth of fifteenth century. The vessel of which it formed part would have been used to hold water for hand-washing (Lewis 1987).
