Description: | Treasure Report: 2008/T336
Fragment from a Medieval brooch - frame , which consists of a flattened sheet of metal decorated with an ellipse against a cross-hatched background within a rectangle and the applied head of a king. At one end there is cut away a thin strip of metal to which the pin would have been attached. The complete brooch- frame was probably decorated with at least three other such heads.
The brooch fragment is silver-gilt and dates from the late thirteenth or early fourteenth century.
