VESSEL

Unique ID: YORYM-E02707

Object type certainty: Certain
Workflow status: Awaiting validation

Possibly a leg from a cast bronze vessel, dating to the medieval to post-medieval periods (circa 1350-1850). The object is sub-rectangular, with well-rounded corners. It appears as a flat sheet of copper alloy. The object may have broken off from a larger vessel and the break is irregular and corroded. The metal has lost much of its original surface; the metal is a light jade-green colour.
