Title Miniature bronze model cannon barrel
Nationality British
Period c 1795
Sold

This little piece is just over 6cm long and of approximately .22 calibre. It is a working model, fully bored through, complete with touch hole. The dark patina would suggest a river find and it might be much earlier than 1795. It represents a ship's deck gun or possibly a light field gun barrel.
