Abstract: |
Using non--destructive x--ray fluorescence analysis, five out of forty-one linen smoothers were found to be made of high--lead glass. They date from the tenth to thirteenth century AD~and could have been made in York. The others were thought to be postash--lime--silica glass. All of the artefacts would have appeared black originally, due to their thickness and their strong green colouration. |
