Single block from the Dutch East Indiaman ''t Vliegend Hart', anonymous, 1729 - 1735 Canvas Print

Wooden block with bronze turntable that rotates around a wooden axis. The block is an oval disc that is partly open on the sides, inside is the bronze disc. This is held in place by a wooden pin. Outside on the wide front and back are notches for the rope work. A small piece of the rope has been preserved that was still around the bronze disc when the block was turned up from the Westerschelde (NG-1983-48-2). Based on the dimensions, it's a 'bramblokje'.
