Description: | Copper alloy medieval annular brooch. The brooch has a decorated frame which is divided into two halves. To one side of the pin the brooch is cast into a cable pattern whilst the other half is a slightly narrower plain circular section frame. The pin is set into a recess and so cannot move around the frame. The pin is complete with a collar at the end where it is attached to the frame and tapers to a point. This division of the decorative scheme on the brooch can be paralleled with an example in Geoff Egan??s Dress Accessories Fig.160, No.1310. The brooch weighs 3.99g and measures 24.22mm in diameter and 3.16mm in thickness. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Marshall, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
