Description: | Fragment of copper alloy brooch. Wings, part of bow and head of pin. There is a broken chain loop at the head of the brooch. The wings are tubular and slightly tapering, housing a probably iron axis bar for the hinged pin. The wings are decorated with two girth grooves at each wing end. The bow projects sharply from the wings, forming a platform at the head. It then drops down at almost 90 degrees. It is broken part way along its length. The sides of the bow are flattened and project backwards slightly. The back of the bow is hollow. The bow is decorated with deeply moulded lozenge and triangular recesses for enamel (a central longitudinal line of lozenges with a row of triangles flanking at each side). | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
