Description: | Copper alloy brooch fragment, Colchester derivative type with rear hook spring attachment. Upper bow and wings only in good condition. Traces of ?solder with spring impressions at both ends of the back of the wings. The wings are moulded with a beaded rib at the bow junction, a plain centre rib and two narrow notched ribs at the end. The bow is lentoid in section with small side flanges. A low centre rib has worn traces of horizontal lines; these become well defined transverse mouldings on the crest and the top of the rear hook. Width 22.6mm, surviving length 19mm. Similarities to Suffolk egs (ADT 038, no 16, FMP 009) but unusual in having a smooth profile between crest and rear hook. | 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: | 43
