Cast copper alloy end cap from a wooden staff or pole. The cap is cylindrical with one end closed by a flat cap and one open. 50% of the rim of the open end is lost to old breaks.

Medieval cast copper alloy zoomorphic ewer spout. The spout dates from the 15th to 17th centuries, and is likely to be of Flemish or German origin. Ewer spouts of this date were made separately to the body of the ewer, to which they were then welded (Lewis, 1987- see reference below). The front of the spout is in the form of an animal’s head with two oval raised ears and two eyes and a snout. A pipe extends from the animal’s open mouth, through which liquid would have flowed. The rear of the spout is undecorated and slopes downwards to form a large curved opening, which is where it…

Workflow stage: Published
An incomplete cast copper alloy zoomorphic candleholder, in the form of a dog. The dog is missing his hind legs. The head is at 90° to the legs and has two ears comprised of a triangle with a V-shaped cut at the top. There appears to be grooves around the snout. The dog is wearing a collar. The body of the dog survives, complete with a tail. There is a hole drilled through the centre of the animal's body, suggesting this would have been where the socket was inserted. Other zoomorphic candleholders of similar form are usually standing on a base - the slim foot we see here would have e…

An incomplete copper alloy mirror case of medieval date. One half of the case survives; the remainder is missing due to old breaks.
