| Title |
Medieval candlestick (probably) |
||
| Description |
English: A cast copper-alloy fragment probably from a medieval candlestick. The piece is broadly U-shaped, with one end terminating in a spike and the other in an outward facing bifurcation. The split end is defined by a triangular removal uppermost. The pointed end has been bent to one side as a result of old damage. The artefact is faceted, with a lozengiform cross-section. At the base of the 'U' are two broken projections, one at each end, both with the same cross-section. They are both truncated after extending for c. 6mm. The identification of a candlestick is by comparison with a piece illustrated in Ward Perkins (1940, 179; ref. 56.1); cf. also SUSS-5E2F87 on this database. The published object too has a bifurcated extension and a spike, alongside a sleeve, although not of the same form. This fragment has a dark-grey patina where it survives and is lightly pitted in places. |
