Title
Medieval Lace Chape
Description
English: A complete copper alloy sheet metal chape or tag, probably a lace tag. It is made from a single sheet of copper alloy rolled to form a cone with an overlapping seam. The cone tapers to a sharp point at one end and at the other is folded over in order to close it off. The tag measures 50.34mm in length, 13.56mm in width, and weighs 8.04g. Similar lace chapes are noted in Medieval Norwich (Margeson, 1993: pp. 22-23) and a near identical example from Axminster is published in Read (1995: pp. 70, no. 395). This example is of probable Medieval date, if not a little later.
