Description: | A diminutive medieval annular brooch frame cast in copper alloy. The frame has a flat, plain lower surface. The upper surface features moulded decoration which divides the frame into four sections. At one of the cardinal points the frame is recessed to take the pin; only the loop of the pin survives in place. Opposite is a cusped pin rest. At the other two, opposing cardinal points are low ovoid collets. These are missing their inset stones, although white adhesive can be seen in one. There are transverse collars around both of the collets and the pin constriction. The four sides are covered in fine punch marks. The brooch now has an even green patina. | Subjects: | annular | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
