Description: | Copper alloy annular Medieval brooch. It is complete with the pin and frame. The frame is plain and is circular in cross-section. The pin is slightly unusual as it has a central circular boss with a light blue stone set into it. The pin is hooked around the frame and tapers towards the end. The boss appears to have been cast integrally to the pin, except for the reverse which may have been added later. The boss could be stone or glass it was not possible to ascertain at the time. The brooch has an uneven brown/green patina due to corrosion. Some of the original surface has been lost.
