Description: | A complete copper alloy medieval brooch, the frame of which is circular measuring 27mm in external diameter and 19mm in internal diameter. The back face of the frame is smooth and undecorated, however, the front face is decorated with a series of transverse constrictions. These constrictions divide the front face into faceted convex fields. The pin remains in situ, it is looped around a deeper pin constriction. It has the remains of two transverse ridges after the loop and tapers to a point, it is also made of copper alloy. Similar brooches have been found in London and are also medieval in date (Egan and Pritchard 1991, 249-251, fig 160). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
