Description: | A complete cast, copper alloy trumpet-derived with bow plate and fantail Roman brooch of Hull?s type 163. The trumpet head is rectangular and has a solid chain loop attached. The hinge mechanism is concealed behind an integrally cast semi-cylindrical moulding. The complete copper alloy pin still remains. The bow is decorated with a single incised V-shape. Mid bow is a large disc with a deep circumferential channel and a central disc divided into six enamelled segments, red and possibly green alternating. The red enamel clearly remains and the green has almost disappeared. At either side of the large disc is a moulded lug. The fantail has three triangles around a smaller central triangle, all containing traces of red enamel. The catchplate is complete on the reverse of the brooch. The length of the brooch is 58.2mm and the width is 22.7mm. | 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
