Description: | Date: 13th - early 14th century. A fragment of a medieval silver-gilt brooch, probably forming one terminal of a square- or lozenge-shaped brooch. The fragment is decorated with a blue-coloured stone, probably a sapphire, set into a raised, square collet, set diagonally to the terminal. Four surviving raised bosses with punched decoration adorn the outline of the terminal. The surface of the brooch is decorated with raised areas of punched decoration probably representing a fleur-de-lys. Beverley Nenk Dept Prehistory and Europe British Museum 15 July 2009
