CANDLE HOLDER

Unique ID: SUR-00F713

Object type certainty: Certain

A small handle, tightly spiralled, presumably from a small vessel such as a candlestick. The handle has a rounded section (5.01mm diameter) and ends with a spatulate and wider terminal in the centre of the spiral. The opposing end also widens out and is rivetted with a small solid rivet onto a small fragment of sheet metal - presumably a fragment of the larger vessel to which the handle was attached.
