Description: | Copper alloy oval plate brooch, probably originally gilded with either an intaglio or a conical glass setting in the centre. Missing pin, very corroded around spring lug (?may have had iron pin); extremely corroded and very abraded around margins and central rib. Punched motifs in outer band not discernible, possibly punched rings. Surviving diameters 23mm x 18mm. The size would be smaller than normal for the glass centre-boss type, Hattatt's gilded oval with intaglio gemstone variant is generally nearer. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 200
