Copper alloy fitting of possible post Medieval date. The fragment consists of a metal plate, decorated, on both faces, with a palmette executed by cutting back the surface to leave a reserved design.

As the cylinder turned the constantly falling balls pulverised material placed in the drum. Ball mills were used in the preparated of powders for makin…
