Description: | The upper part of a trumpet brooch. The condition of the brooch is very poor, it is dark brown and has been covered with a type of varnish. On the bow is the upper part of a once circular (or possibly D-shaped) expansion (16.5mm wide) with three circular recesses - one probably still retains red enamel. Around the head is a length of twisted silver wire, now detached, set into a groove. On either side of the head were originally a pair of spiral silver wire inlays only one of which now survives.
