Description: | Enamelled copper alloy umbonate brooch with a deep channel around the dome, mounted an a very slightly conical surround. Broken chain loop above. The perimter of the brooch would have probably had six peripheral knobs and a lug on the opposite edge (as Hattatt; #131, p141, fig. 60). Enamelled five leaved petal motif decorates the face. Inner has alternating yellow and green enamel; outer has yellow and blue alternating. The design is a close approximation to the original sunburst pattern. Hattatt describes this form of brooch as being purely British made and not found on the continent.
