Description: | A probable cast copper alloy annular brooch of medieval date. The circular brooch measures 33.2mm in diameter, 3.4mmmm in thickness and weighs 7.4g. It has a circular cross-section. There is a constriction for the pin, which is wrapped around the frame. Adjacent to this the pin has a circular swelling and is broken at this point (it has the appearance of having been twisted to the point that it has broken). A similar but more complete brooch features in Egan and Pritchard's 'Dress Accessories' (1991, pp. 248-9, no. 1307). | Subjects: | Annular | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
