Description: | A complete copper alloy Colchester one-piece brooch. The brooch has been distorted, possibly deliberately, by folding the head right over. The folded length is 37mm. The brooch has a plain oval-sectioned bow that tapers to a triangular openwork catchplate on the reverse. The wings are semi-circular in section and open on the reverse to accommodate the spring. This passes through a pierced lug above the wings and has three turns each side before forming the pin.
