Medieval to Post Medieval Ewer Pouring Spout (dog's head) |
||
Description |
English: A complete Medieval to post-Medieval cast copper alloy zoomorphic pouring spout in the form of a dog's head (c. 1400-c. 1550).
The dog's head is tubular and oval in cross-section and holds a circular-shaped spout (about 7.5mm internal diameter) in its mouth from which liquid would have been poured. The dog's head is angular and robust. Its nose is short and slightly upturned. The eyes have not been modelled. It has large sub-rectangular ears that project above the side of the head. The back of the spout, where it would have been attached to a vessel, is curved and has a large sub-oval opening that narrows to become the circular opening in the mouth. The spout is in fair condition and has a dark green shiny patina although some of the patina has exfoliated due to corrosion. Length: 70.5mm; width: 42.6mm; thickness: 17.4mm. Weight: 53.32g. A number of these types of spouts have been recorded on the Portable Antiquities Scheme database. For example, see finds: BUC-401B44; ESS-A538F1; HAMP-D1C9D5; HESH-0A8381; IOW-0E8386; IOW-A166F1; LVPL-EACD18; SF-5B0655; SF-CC25D3; SOM-3B6544; SUR-1B3AC1; SUSS-174DE1; SWYOR-037054; WAW-E70D15 and WMID-059217. Similar decorative spouts are illustrated in Bailey 1997: 57-59 but none of them show how they would have been attached to vessels. The spouts mainly date to the 15th century although their use may have continued into the 16th century. For a similar spout on a pedestal-base ewer from Cardiff Castle moat, dated to the 15th century, see: Lewis 1987: 4-5, fig 8a. Also see: Mills 1999: 110, ref. NM 292.
