Description: | Fragment of Roman Trumpet brooch, dating to the late 1st - 2nd Century of Collingwood type Riv. The head of the brooch survives as far as the acanthus moulding at the waist (this moulding does not continue around the bow but is just present on the front). The brooch is fairly worn but red and blue enamel is present on the decorated head which is decorated with back-to-back crescents. On the back of the head is an integral spring lug with a large perforation. The brooch measures 38mm in length and 16mm in width across the head. A similar example can be seen in Hattatts visual catalogue, figure 186. No.431. | Subjects: | Trumpet | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Marshall, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
