Description: | A cast copper-alloy Roman T-shape brooch. The short plain tubular wings conceal a hinge pin mechanism, though the copper-alloy pin is incomplete. The flat bow tapers to a rounded foot knob and has a vertical crest rib. Midway down the bow is a vertical line of lozenge-shaped enamel cells, none of which retains the enamel. Around the edge of the vertical line are smaller circular enamel cells, some of which still retains red enamel. Behind the foot knob is a short catchplate with a length of 8.4mm. The length of the brooch is 34.7mm, the width is 21.7mm and the weight is 5.89g. | 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
