Late Medieval to early Post-Medieval copper alloy chafing dish handle of 15th to 17th century date.<\/p>\n\n
\nThe handle is complete and of bifurcating form, with a stud for attachment to the dish (with an overall length of 62.3mm and weighing 42.7g). The looped handle (49.4mm long, 58.2mm wide at bifurcated end and 24.8mm wide at the attachment end) is of hexagonally faceted section (between 3.9mm and 5.1mm thick and between 4.6mm and 6mm wide). The attachment lug (22.6mm long) is of rectangular section (with a maximum width of 15.6mm and thickness of 9.0mm) with rounded sides, expanding at the shoulders at the attachment end. The lug was attached using an integral circular-sectioned rivet (6.9mm diameter and 2.0mm long). The surface has a mid to dark-green patina with file marks evident on both the handle and lug.<\/p>\n\n
The handle closely resembles those found at Norwich, as recorded by Margeson (1993, p.81, nos. 489-491) especially no. 491 which has the same two-lobed form, which have been dated to the 15th and 16th centuries. Lewis also records chafing dishes with two-lobed handles of 16th to 17th century date and suggests that they may be particular to Britain, as only one had been found on the Continent at that time (Lewis, 1978, p. 35) .<\/p>\n\n
