Copper Flint Striker

This flint striker is made of copper and is decorated with an alam terminal in a stylised dragons' head with an open mouth. The dragon’s curved neck and body enables one to hold the object securely whilst scraping a flint stone beneath the object’s elongated surface to produce fire.
