Description: | Copper alloy brooch, type related to Hattatt's wing and fanbow type (Hattatt 1989, 44-45). Missing pin. Short semi-cylindrical plain arms with a small flat rear hook. Upper bow is rectangular in section with 2 strong grooves making a ribbed appearance. The lower bow continues the flat back of the upper part but is stepped down at the front; the edges curve outwards to form a fantail shape with curved end. Small solid catchplate. The lower bow is coated in white metal. Width 11.5mm, length 30mm. Although the rear hook and general shape resemble Hattatt's wing & fanbow group the upper bow and profile are more similar to the Maxey type bow and fantail group.
