Title
NARC-7C3F9D: post medieval candlestick
Description
English: A component of a Post-Medieval copper alloy candlestick.

Only the socket survives, the remainder of the object is missing due to old breaks, now worn.

The socket is cylindrical in shape although slightly misshapen, probably due to post-depositional damage. It is decorated with two circumferential grooves around its middle and a similar, single, groove around its mouth and base. Below the single groove the socket tapers to a transverse groove collar which connects to an integral flat, circular base before terminating in old breaks.

Candlesticks of this type date to the late fifteenth to sixteenth centuries AD. There are parallels in Brownsword, 1985 (FRG Datasheet no. 1): nos. 9 and 11.
