Description: | Copper alloy brooch fragment, fantail. Lower half only, damaged catchplate flap and fantail edge. The bow is flat backed, the upper part narrow (3.5mm) and triangular in section. The centre has a triple rib transverse moulding, with broad grooves between the ribs. The flat lower bow expands to 11.5mm (surviving) and has a single incised line around the margin. Surviving length 30mm. In the absence of the upper part it is difficult to fully classify this brooch - it is not quite like the Maxey type of fantail which is very standardised and might be a fantailed hinged Colchester derivative. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Plouviez, Judith | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
