Title |
A Post-Medieval copper alloy spindle. |
||
Description |
English: A post-Medieval copper alloy spindle with separately cast iron axis bar.
This axis bar has become cemented by rust. The spindle is threaded around this axis bar and is also cemented in place. The is a gap where the pin would have been, which is flanked on the axis bar by the attachments for the spindle. The spindle tapers from the axis bar through its length before it comes to an old break. On the reverse of the spindle there is a makers mark 'WAP'. The object has a dark green patina with lighter green areas of corrosion across the spindle and a lot of orange around the axis bar also due to corrosion.. The spindle measures 22.5mm in length. The spindle starts with a width of 20.7mm going down to 8.1mm at the break with a thickness of 2.2mm. The object weighs 4.36g. Whitehead (2003,96 and 98) shows a very similar spindle, type III/IV on page 96 and no. 610 on page 98. |
