Incomplete copper alloy skillet handle, semi-circular in section and 21mm wide at the (old) break (and 10mm thick). It is 87mm in length and weighs 95.42g. At the complete, rounded end it is 16mm wide and 8.5mm thick. The flat side of the handle is crudely decorated with two deep grooves running parallel to the edges. The area between these lines is filled with joining V-shaped grooves, of which there are five from the broken end. After the fifth is another deep groove running across the handle and creating a V-shaped groove in both edges. This creates an area 19mm in length to the rou…

County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper alloy possible vessel handle, now incomplete due to wear and old breaks. It is U-shaped with an oval cross-section, measuring 28mm in length and 31mm in width in total. Each arm measures 4.7mm in width. The incomplete terminal ends are flattened and it seems likely there was a small hole where they are now incomplete, which would have allowed this possible handle to be riveted to a copper-alloy vessel. No parallel could be found and this possible handle could be Roman or later in date.
