Description: | Copper alloy fragment, possibly from a Roman bow brooch of unusual style and design, possibly a variant Knee brooch. The brooch is represented by the head and upper bow only. The brooch employed a hinge mechanism with twin lugs, as is usually found on plate brooches. The head is angled to the bow and may have had a head plate or chain loop. The upper bow is of slender D-shaped section and has a near right-angled turn, where the section becomes triangular with a slight central rib.
