Incomplete Late Medieval/ Early Post-Medieval copper alloy dagger chape missing part of its separate backplate. It weighs 9.50g and measures 36.42x(max)26.36mm.

The chape has a rounded bottom (max.width) from which a knop extends, with scallop decoration in the form of radiating grooves from an openwork tri-lobe at the centre. Above this, at the top of the rounded base, is a horizontal rib below an openwork heart. Either side, the edges of the chape slope slightly outwards to a crenellated transverse 'open' edge.

To the reverse, the backplate mostly survives, covering all of the rounded base area and part of rest. It is 0.56mm thick.

An incomplete cast copper alloy scabbard chape, of Late Medieval to Early Post Medieval dating (AD 1450 to AD 1550).

Quantity: 1

Incomplete late medieval/ early post medieval copper alloy scabbard chape, probably from a narrow-pointed sword or dagger and with some damage to the backplate. It measures 33.4x21.1mm and weighs 6.23g.

The chape has a spearate backplate, soldered on and complete with only a little damage along the top edge and opposite the openwork of the chape.

The chape has a rounded bottom with a knop projecting from it. This rounded part is decorated with radiating lines (rather like a scallop design) from an openwork trefoil at the centre, which also extends into the top part of the chape.

The top part of the chape has straight edges but an incurved 'horizontal' edge with little projections, inwards at either end.

Late 15th/ early 16th century.

Overall dimensions: weight is 10.75g, height is 39.65mm, maximum width is 28.84mm, thickness is 6.10mm.

The underside of the upper surface of the chape is concave however very little of this can be seen as the flat back plate survives over the entire scallop shape and a little of the upper, narrower, part of the chape. The back plate seems to have been made of sheet copper-alloy 0.37mm thick. Dried mud fills the space between the front and back plate of the chape and it is important to note that this will account for some of the weight of the object as recorded here. The chape was originally silvered however this now only survives as small patches on the edges
