Description: | Roman copper alloy and enamel trumpet brooch fragment, 36mm long and 13mm wide. The object is in fair condition being quite worn, with a green patina and weighs 9.46 grams. The object consists of the upper part of the brooch with sping and pin missing. It has two triangular cells of yellow enamel near its upper edge. Below this are two open semi-circles filled with blue enamel, these are seperated by a slight ridge running down the centre of the brooch. Below this is a slightly raised chevron, the brooch continues undecorated for 10mm and then bulges to form the shoulder. Just below this it has snapped off. The design matches F.186 examples 1528-957 in Hattatt's ancient brooches. | Subjects: | trumpet | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Scott, Wendy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
