Description: | Incomplete, cast copper-alloy Rosette brooch. The spring and pin are missing. The wings are semi-circular in cross section and contain iron corrosion. The bow arches straight from the head-plate, but is flattened slightly, curving into the centre of the disc. The bow has a longitudinal median moulding, with two narrow mouldings on each side. The disc is slightly concave in profile and is cast in with the rest of the brooch. There are five deep moulded flutes around the junction of the upper bow and plate that do not run behind the bow. The outer edges of the disc are damaged. The lower bow is missing.Similar to an example from Marlowe Car Park, Canterbury (MacKreth 1995, 971 no. 83 fig. 407)
