Description: | Cast copper alloy incomplete T-shaped brooch consisting of a solid cast bow and tubular wings with hinge mechanism for the pin. The copper alloy axis bar and part of the hinge are intact. The rest of the pin, foot and catchplate are missing. The upper section of the bow is carinated at the front giving it a triangular section (Width 4.2mm). The bow then expands to form a flat-fronted, lozenge shaped panel, defined by incised lines, with recesses for enamel (Length 16.4mm. Width 7.8mm). There is a triangular recess, a rectangular recess and an inverted triangular recess, arranged longitudinally. No enamel survives. The lower section of the bow is also carinated at the front and tapers towards the foot, which is missing (Width 5.3-2.8mm). Patchy, dull mid-green patina. Similar to examples in Hattatt 2000.
