Description: | The wings are semi-cylindrical without wing caps. In the centre of the wings on the reverse, there is a vertical lug, which is incomplete. Above this lug there is also a circular, vertical loop.
The bow head is slightly hump-like with a circular platform positioned at the head of the bow with the edge meeting the edge of the wings. This circular platform has a circular cell within a low-relief ring.
The bow is sub semi-circular in section. The upper portion of the bow is very worn, however traces of two columns of triangular cells are still visible. The bow expands in depth below the apex of the bow. The bow tapers towards the foot which is expanded and circular in section. The catchplate is solid, and complete.
The surface of the brooch has a well developed green/blue coloured patina.
The pin is missing. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Angie Bolton | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
