Description: | Incomplete copper alloy horse and rider brooch. Only the head and front portion of the horse survives. The horse is depicted galloping right. The head is narrow and slightly elongated, with a recessed dot for the eye and a moulded triangle at the top for the ear. The mane is shown flowing as it would during galloping. The front portion of the horse contains a recessed crescentric cell that would have once contained enamel. All that remains within the cell is are patches of brownish patina which is also seen elsewhere on the brooch. The front right leg is outstretched and missing just above the knee. There is a broken catchplate on the reverse of the front portion of the horse.
