Description: | This appears to be the bow fragment of a dolphin brooch with the wings missing. The top surface of the bow has linear 'reeded' decoration along the upper half of the bow (towards the head), which terminates in a hollow that may have held a semi precious stone, or enamel. There is evidence of a catch plate at the foot of the bow. There is some evidence of a fixing hole for the spring/pin at the top of the bow. The surface has a mottled brown/green patination.
