Title
Post Medieval copper alloy netting needle
Description
English: A Post Medieval copper alloy netting needle (16th century). The needle has a circular cross-section and the shaft is slightly curved. The needle has been made from two lengths of copper alloy wire, each with a D-shaped cross-section that have been soldered together to form the shaft leaving the two terminals forked (length of fork: 10.56mm). This sort of fine netting needle would have been used to produce netting for hair nets.

Dimensions: diameter: 1.19mm; length: 104.29mm; weight: 0.98g.

Identification and dating by Tony Pilson and Ian Smith based on foreshore context.
