Description: | A cast copper alloy Colchester one piece brooch fragment. The fragment consists of the bow and part of the spring of the brooch. The external chord, pin and the catchplate are missing. At the head of the brooch, two turns of the external spring remain in situ housed by the remains of the wings. The hook has broken off; all the breaks are worn. The bow of the brooch has a flattened oval section and appears to be undecorated. It is terminated by a break above the foot of the brooch. The object is very worn with a patchy brown and light green patina. Colchester one piece brooches date to the 1st century AD.
