Description: | Unusual copper alloy bow and fantail brooch. Tubular wings with a double incised line set diagonally along the face of each wing. Arched bow which drops onto the wings from above reminiscent of the style of bows found on dolphin brooches. The bow tapers to a collar and then further tapers until it meets the foot, terminating with a rounded knob. The tapering bow divides the face of the fantail into two panels, which are both incised around the perimeter with a gently bowed line. Hinged pin, broken catchplate. Knobs at either corner of the fantail. | Subjects: | bow and fantail | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
