Title |
A Late 17th - early 18th century copper alloy barrel tap. |
||
Description |
English: A Post Medieval copper alloy tap (17th - early 18th century). The tap has a bifurcated key with ‘ID’ stamped just below the collar. The key connects with an hour-glass-shaped junction between the spout and the tube which fits inside the cistern. This tube is bi-conical and the end is roughened to help secure the tube inside the cistern. The spout is decoratively faceted with a stepped lip before it narrows at the tip.
A similar tap is illustrated in Margeson (1993:137 fig. 932) which is dated to the first half of the 17th century. Margeson (1993:138) notes “taps with bifurcated keys are seen as an intermediate stage between Medieval tap keys in the form of a cockerel, fleur-de-lis or openwork trefoil, and the flat-topped T-shaped keys of the 18th century. They were used with cisterns.” Dimensions: Diameter: 22.90mm; length: 162.69mm; width: 52.70mm; height of tap: 103.73mm; thickness: 4.47mm; weight: 399.98g. Reference: Margeson, S.1993.
