Title
Candle snuffer
Description
English: Copper alloy cone shaped object, possibly a candle snuff. The object is cast and has very crude incised decoration on the outside in the form of a continuous spiral from the base to the top of the cone. Around the edge at the base is an incised zig-zag, again this is crude. The cone has an uneven hole in the top and the edges at the base are also broken and jagged. The hole at the top may have been where a handle once came from the object. It measures 44.4mm in length, 27.8mm in width and weighs 15.75g.
