A slender cast copper alloy vessel leg and integral foot probably from a skillet or ewer. The leg and foot have a moulded low-relief trefoil shape front with a flat back. Approximately halfway down the leg there is a 5.5mm wide raised collar. The foot tapers outwards from this with a pronounced central toe and flat end. The skillets and ewers to which these legs attached were usually of a tripod form and were widely used from circa 1200-1700 AD for serving and cooking. The object is 49mm long and 18mm at its widest point across the foot.
