Object type: CANDLE HOLDER
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A medieval iron candle holder dating AD 1270-1400. The object consists of a single cup, formed by folding a rectangular iron sheet with rounded ends to create a cylinder. There are two stems, both are squared and taper to a point but have been rounded but wear. There is a large amount of sediment contained within the cup. Examples of medieval candle holders can be found in Egan (1998, 142-143) though this example seems to be a hybrid of the straight-stem and the right-angled stem types. Both types date from AD 1270-1400. Dimensions: length: 133.49 mm; width: 99.70 mm; diameter …
