Description: | Copper alloy equal ended enamelled brooch. Missing most of pin, damaged catchplate and terminal. Pin is hinged between two close set lugs. A lozenge-shaped central panel is sub-divided into four enamelled panels; traces of turquoise survive in one of the side panels and orange in the upper one. The lozenge is bounded by a single groove and the edge is notched (now very worn). At each end there is a small step down to the zoomorphic terminals (?snake-heads) which have punched circle eyes and three rows of punched arc scales. Length 48mm, width 24mm, centre lozenge plate 1.7mm thick. Very similar to Hattatt no 1101 (from Billingsgate) which had black enamel. | 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: | 100
