Description: | A Roman plate brooch; the pin and one end, together with the catchplate are missing. The surviving portion of the brooch consists of a central waisted panel infilled with red enamel and six circles of blue, arranged in two triangles. Either side of this is a pair of cicles with large circular apertures and with enamelled crescents (colour unclear)on their outer parts. The surviving end is surmounted by a small cross with a central punched pair of concentric circles and with similar circles also on the three projecting arms. It is probable that the missing terminal was also a cross. On the back are the stubs of the pin hinge. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Williams, David W - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
