Copper-alloy lidded container for a set of nested cup-weights. It is a truncated cone in shape with a sub-hexagonal base 26 mm in diameter at the bottom; the lid is 34 mm in diameter. The sides have four solid vertical ribs and two double ribs running from top to bottom. Each of the double ribs ends in a perforated lug, one pair empty and the other with a copper-alloy hinge bar.

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Composite copper-alloy buckle frame and integral plate. The frame is oval with a distinct knop at the pin rest, and 22 mm wide. The integral forked spacer has a plate soldered to each face leaving a hole for the (missing) pin. There is a single copper-alloy rivet at the attachment end and the plate is 15 mm wide. The frame and spacer are a dark grey colour, and there are patches of dark grey coating on the plate; the dark grey probably represents a decayed white-metal coating. Length 41 mm.

Object type: STRAP FITTING
Broad period: MEDIEVAL

Workflow stage: Published
Large mount, probably from a belt, made of two pieces of copper alloy sheet held together with four rivets. Each sheet is basically rectangular with either short end cut into a double outcurve. Both sheets have a central circular perforation 5 mm in diameter. The rivets are placed in the centre of the outcurves and have disc heads at either end. Some fragmentary edges. Perhaps a decorative mount, or perhaps for reinforcing a hole in the strap. 41 x 21 mm.

Object type: BUTTON
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Copper-alloy button made in two pieces. The head of the button is hollow and biconvex, with a large hole in the shallowly domed back into which a circular-section wire loop is inserted. Possibly medieval, as it is similar in some respects to Egan and Pritchard 1991, no. 1386; but also perhaps much later, perhaps 17th century. 10 mm in diameter, and 10 mm from the front to the end of the loop.

Workflow stage: Published
Fragment of rim from a cast copper-alloy vessel, together with part of the angled handle lug which identifies it as a cauldron. The rim is smoothly polished inside and has oblique filemarks outside; both surfaces are black but this is very even and may be a deliberate coating rather than sooting. There are at least two breaks, one much more recent than the other. The handle is a faceted D-shape in section and is broken just below the rather rounded angle. The rim fragment is 56 x 23 mm maximum, and the handle projects 36 mm from the rim. The section of the handle is 10 x 10 mm.

Workflow stage: Published
Chunky strap loop made from a piece of D-section copper-alloy rod bent in half with a wide loop at the bend. The two arms are held together with two copper-alloy rivets with sub-spherical heads and unobtrusive hammered-down ends. The loop is very worn internally at the reverse. The whole strap loop is gilded but there also appears to be a black coating over the top of the gilding (perhaps caused by the application of hot linseed oil, ironically intended to preserve the gold colour). Patches of gilding are visible on the scanned image. The space between the two arms (the thickness …

Broad period: MEDIEVAL

Workflow stage: Published
Copper-alloy strap-end of 'crescentic' type. The 'crescentic' end is actually sub-circular with an offset sub-circular perforation, the two ends of the crescent being joined. There is a pentagonal terminal, shorter than is usual on crescentic strap-ends, with relief decoration to represent a tree or bush. This has an off-centre circular perforation. The crescentic end is decorated with engraving to represent the roots of the tree or bush within a border. It has two separate copper-alloy rivets near the terminal, and two iron rivets nearer the attachment end; these would originally hav…

Broad period: MEDIEVAL

Pyramidal mount made of thin copper-alloy sheet, with four triangular faces leading up to a rivet hole in the centre. This retains a 7 mm long copper-alloy rivet with burred-over ends. The mount measures 19 x 17 mm and is 4 mm high. It was probably used on a belt, but other uses (e.g. on a book) cannot be ruled out.

Incomplete copper-alloy spacer plate from a composite strap-end. The terminal knop is oval in section and flaring with a small narrow pointed tip and a moulding around the base. This sits on a crescent-shaped fragment of spacer plate which has lots of shiny grey solder on both faces. Originally the spacer plate would have been a ring, perhaps with forking arms. The breaks are old. Maximum width 24 mm.
