Description: | Cast copper alloy Headstud variant brooch dating to the 2nd century AD.
The bow has broken just below the boss. The boss is cast integrally with the brooch. It is circular with a quatrefoil pattern. The pin is hinged and has broken just after the top. The wings have squared ends which then are stepped down towards the bow. There is the remains of what may have been a lug, although this would have been purely decorative, not having a spring to hold in place. | Subjects: | Headstud Variant | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McIntosh, Frances | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
