Description: | A cast copper alloy Bow-and-Fantail, bow brooch from the 1st - 2nd century. The head and upper bow are missing, due to a break. All that survives is the fantail. The fantail is made from a flared, flat traingular plate. This bears a motif of three raised lozenges in a row, inside a rectangular border. The catchplate lies behind the centre of the flared foot, it is badly damaged. The metal is a mid greenish-brown colour. Similar brooches can be seen in Hattatt, p315.
