Description: | Anglo-Saxon gilt copper alloy saucer brooch. The motif on the face consists of a central lozenge which forms the centre of a cross. The arms of the cross each divide into two spiral terminals which turn away from each other; pairs of spirals from different arms thus filling each quadrant between the arms. An integral catchplate and hinge partially survive on the back of the brooch, but no trace of pin. The booch measures 25mm in diameter and 7mm in thickness.
