NH64NE 598 centred 66 45

Wooden hanging bowl found by chance about 25 years ago in a peat bog near Inverness. Conical, made of turned oak, with two opposing copper-alloy cruciform mounts, one of which is still attached to an internal suspension loop (diameter 35mm). It is 260mm long by 210mm wide and probably served an ecclesiastical function.
