Title
Post Medieval : Toy
Description
English: An incomplete lead alloy zoomorphic toy of late Post-Medieval date. The toy is a solid cast naturalistically modelled pig, probably from a toy farm set. The head is small in comparison to the body and has two worn ears that project from the top of the head. The small projection below the ears represent the snout. It has a sub-ovate body with a rounded terminal and has two narrow, cylindrical leg projections near the terminal and only one leg near the head of the toy as the other has been lost due to and old break. Cast seams are evident on the toy, one runs from the head along the back and there are other seams evident between the legs.

The metal has a mid white-grey patina. It is 26.47mm long, 13.97mm wide, 6.18mm thick and weighs 9.67g.

Although this object may be classed as too modern for this database, it is a good example of the time period.
