Description: | Roman copper alloy headstud derivitive brooch. The brooch consists of a spring case 21mm wide which is now missing its spring. This is decorated with one vertical incised line on the left side. The bow which is 21mm long, has snapped about two-thirds of the way down and is decorated with two vertical incised lines on each side which surround a central semi-spherical protrusion. This has a further two lines emerging from its sides which run down the brooch for 5mm before joining together. At the top of the bow is a rectangular protrusion which has a void near its centre (perhaps to hold enamel?) The brooch is in a fair condition with a brown patina.
