Object type: JEWS HARP
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Jews’ Harp made of copper-alloy. Only half of the harp survives. The head and the two prongs all have the characteristic lozenge shaped cross-section. The surfaces all appear to have been filed resulting in a series of file marks on the surface of the harp. The rabbet from the tongue survives on the head; it is at this point that the harp has broken. The break is very worn. The tongue is missing. This example is most likely to be post-medieval in date.
