Description: | A cast, leaded-bronze headstud brooch of the early 2nd century.
The foot of the brooch is a rather simple rounded knob, and the catchplate is missing. The boow is decorated with rectangular panels, most of which contain blue, white, or red enamel. The top of the brooch has a raised circular stud, cast integrally with the brooch. The head itself is incomplete, but reminiscent of that of a trumpet brooch rather than the traditional T-shape of a typical headstud brooch. A loop appears to have broken off the head, and the spring and pin are missing. | Subjects: | Headstud | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Collins, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
