Description: | A copper-alloy open-frame/annular brooch of probable 13th to 15th century date.
The frame consists of a flattened sub-circular ring. At one point there is a slight recess within the upper surface, which probably acted as the pin constriction. The pin is made from a length of copper-alloy wire and has been looped around the frame. The metallic composition of the pin and the frame appear to differ.
The artefact measures 16.4mm in diameter, 4.6mm thick and weighs 1.47g. | Subjects: | Open frame/Annular | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
