Description: | Copper alloy brooch, headstud type. Missing pin - iron corrosion in this area suggests it may have had an iron pin, but not responsive to a magnet - otherwise in good condition except some missing enamel. The pin was hinged and the headloop is fixed. Vertical ridges on wings. Rectangular section bow with a cast headstud, single ring stamp. The lozenges contain turquoise enamel, but the triangles are missing and discoloured (perhaps dark blue??). The foot is defined by three transverse ribs above, a double moulding on the foot and a flat end. Length 50mm, width 16.5mm. Snape 1993 type 3.1Di, as Hattatt no.36. | 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: | 75
