Description: | An example of the Colchester derivative. It is almost complete apart from the axis bar, pin or the spring. Unfortunately there is a bend in the bow of the brooch, but otherwise it is in good condition. The wings are quite wide, presumably to cover the spring, and on part of the bow, where the wings are separated there is a rib running down from where the chord is kept in place. At the foot there is a small raised knob. Originally the brooch would have been gilted.
