Footnote
Note: Perhaps the most iconic pieces copied within the Traprain Treasure, these Roman reproduction salts have been made since the discovery in 1919 to date. Their production has carried forward from the originals by Brook & Sons to Hamilton & Inches and are made virtually in the same pattern and way to this day.
