Description: | Cast copper alloy headstud brooch, dating to the second century AD. The object comprises a semi-cylindrical head for hiding the spring pin (now missing). There is a loop from the top edge of the head down to the headstud, where the loop has fractured. The headstud comprises concentric circles of enamel, with the outer ring being orange, a narrow band of possibly orange and a central dot of white. The bow curves downwards with a rectangular cell of white enamel; the bow then curves outwards with alternating horizontal rectangular cells of white and red. The catchplate is largely intact on the reverse of the lower bow. | Subjects: | Headstud brooch | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Echtenacher, Beth - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
