Description: | Copper alloy fragment from an enamelled dragonesque type brooch. Part of the centre panel and narrow curve beyond only, abraded. The shape is a reverse-S. The surviving piece could be from either top or base of the centre panel - there is possible pin wear suggesting the top, but no sign of a stay on the body (to join to the head) suggesting the base. The enamelled cells comprise two curving triangles with two rectangles (incomplete) behind - originally this would have been a four-rectangle type. Surviving enamel fragments are a pale blue alternating with dark red (?), but the cells containing the latter are mainly filled with a white-ish paste. Surviving length 20mm. Enamel design as Hattatt no. 1655.
