Description: | Cast copper alloy Roman bow and fantail brooch. The brooch has cylindrical wings held behind two flat wing covers. The wings are decorated with three vertical grooves. The hinged pin is missing. The bow has an elaborate rectangular panel in the centre with a double moulded collar above and below. The rectangular panel contains four rectangular cells set vertically, with a deep horizontal channel above and below. The cells would once have contained enamel however only a patch of blue remains. The foot is triangular, flat, and contains three smaller triangual cells that would have once contained enamel; none now remains. The catchplate is intact.
