Description: | A small complete oval-shaped, silver annular brooch of the thirteenth or fourteenth century. Length 23mm, width 19.5mm and 2.0mm thick. Weight 2.58g. The frame to one side of the pin is of twisted cable pattern. Within each twist is a line of closely related granulations. The frame on the other side of the pin is plain and round in cross-section (2.0mm in diameter). There is a constriction (2.0mm in width) for the tapering pin which is round in cross-section. The pin has a sub-circular loop which completely encloses the constriction. At the juncture of the pin shaft and loop is a small transverse collar decorated with similar granulations to those within the twisted cable decoration. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Frank Basford | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
